Chemical Structure

Lithium 5-chloro-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylate CAS 2060063-62-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Lithium 5-chloro-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylate is closely related to a salt form, an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Lithium 5-chloro-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylate (CAS 2060063-62-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H4ClLiN2O2 and a molecular weight of 166.49 g/mol.

Owing to a salt form, an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Lithium 5-chloro-1-methyl-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 166.49 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.

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.
