Chemical Structure

2-(1H-Imidazol-5-yl)ethanol hydrochloride CAS 180307-01-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(1H-Imidazol-5-yl)ethanol hydrochloride is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(1H-Imidazol-5-yl)ethanol hydrochloride (CAS 180307-01-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H8N2OHCl, MW 148.59 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-(1H-Imidazol-5-yl)ethanol hydrochloride is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 148.59 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(1H-Imidazol-5-yl)ethanol hydrochloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
