2-((3-Fluorobenzyl)sulfonyl)-1-methyl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole CAS 338957-03-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-((3-Fluorobenzyl)sulfonyl)-1-methyl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole.

2-((3-Fluorobenzyl)sulfonyl)-1-methyl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole (CAS 338957-03-2), molecular formula C23H19FN2O2S and molecular weight 406.47 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, 2-((3-Fluorobenzyl)sulfonyl)-1-methyl-4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazole is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 406.47 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
