CATO supplies 2-(Benzylthio)-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (CAS 26196-38-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C15H14N2S, MW 254.35 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 2-(Benzylthio)-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (C15H14N2S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 254.35 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(Benzylthio)-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole 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.
