2-((4-Chlorobenzyl)thio)-1,4,5-trimethyl-1H-imidazole CAS 338965-83-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-((4-Chlorobenzyl)thio)-1,4,5-trimethyl-1H-imidazole (CAS 338965-83-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H15ClN2S, MW 266.79 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, 2-((4-Chlorobenzyl)thio)-1,4,5-trimethyl-1H-imidazole is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 266.79 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-((4-Chlorobenzyl)thio)-1,4,5-trimethyl-1H-imidazole 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.
