Chemical Structure

1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)ethanone CAS 18773-95-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-1-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.

1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)ethanone (CAS 18773-95-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H8N2O and a molecular weight of 160.17 g/mol.

Structurally, 1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)ethanone (C9H8N2O) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 160.17 g/mol, it falls into the medium-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).

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