Chemical Structure

1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate CAS 145022-44-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate.

1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate (CAS 145022-44-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula CF3O3SC6H11N2 and a molecular weight of 260.23 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 260.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
