ethyl 1-(2-trimethylsilylethoxymethyl)imidazole-2-carboxylate (CAS 329984-05-6), molecular formula C12H26N2O3Si and molecular weight 274.43 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of ethyl 1-(2-trimethylsilylethoxymethyl)imidazole-2-carboxylate (C12H26N2O3Si) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
As a certified reference material (CRM), ethyl 1-(2-trimethylsilylethoxymethyl)imidazole-2-carboxylate 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.
