Chemical Structure

1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-ol CAS 184590-87-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-ol.

1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-ol (CAS 184590-87-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H6N2O and a molecular weight of 98.10 g/mol.

Structurally, 1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-ol (C4H6N2O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 98.10 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.

CATO manufactures 1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-ol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
