Chemical Structure

1-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-4-bromo-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde CAS 189014-06-0 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-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-4-bromo-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde.

1-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-4-bromo-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde (CAS 189014-06-0), molecular formula C12H11BrN2O2 and molecular weight 295.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 1-((Benzyloxy)methyl)-4-bromo-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 295.13 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.

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

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.
