Chemical Structure
Description
The molecular framework of Bis(1,3-dimethyl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ylidene)copper (C10H16CuN4) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Bis(1,3-dimethyl-1H-imidazol-2(3H)-ylidene)copper (CAS 164172-45-6), molecular formula C10H16CuN4 and molecular weight 255.81 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
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.
