Chemical Structure

7-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine CAS 18390-15-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 7-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

7-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (CAS 18390-15-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H14N2 and a molecular weight of 186.25 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 7-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (C12H14N2) 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 7-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine 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.
