Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine CAS 28279-52-9 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Bromo-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]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.

5-Bromo-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (CAS 28279-52-9), molecular formula C6H4BrN3 and molecular weight 198.02 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 5-Bromo-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (C6H4BrN3) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 198.02 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).

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.
