Chemical Structure

2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazole CAS 343771-00-6 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazole (C11H12N2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. 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 presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO supplies 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazole (CAS 343771-00-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H12N2, MW 172.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazole under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
