4-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)pyridine CAS 21202-42-6

Description

The occurrence of 4-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)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.

CATO supplies 4-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (CAS 21202-42-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H7N3, MW 145.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C8H7N3, 4-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)pyridine contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 145.16 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)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.
