The occurrence of 1-((2-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 1-((2-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (CAS 338791-27-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H14Cl2N2O, MW 369.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 1-((2-Chlorobenzyl)oxy)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (C20H14Cl2N2O) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
