Chemical Structure

1-(1,2-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)ethanone CAS 18076-20-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(1,2-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)ethanone is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 1-(1,2-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)ethanone (CAS 18076-20-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H12N2O, MW 188.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-(1,2-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)ethanone (C11H12N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
