Chemical Structure

4-Fluoro-1H-imidazole CAS 30086-17-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Fluoro-1H-imidazole is closely related to a nitrile group, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-Fluoro-1H-imidazole (CAS 30086-17-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C3H3FN2, MW 86.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 4-Fluoro-1H-imidazole (C3H3FN2) contains a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 86.07 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
