The occurrence of Methyl 1-propyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Methyl 1-propyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate (CAS 149096-33-3), molecular formula C8H12N2O2 and molecular weight 168.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 1-propyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate (C8H12N2O2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
