Chemical Structure

1-(2-Chlorobenzyl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid CAS 1439899-35-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 1-(2-Chlorobenzyl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid (CAS 1439899-35-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H9ClN2O2, MW 236.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C11H9ClN2O2, 1-(2-Chlorobenzyl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 236.65 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
