Chemical Structure

2-Isopropylimidazole CAS 36947-68-9 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 2-Isopropylimidazole (CAS 36947-68-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H10N2, MW 110.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrile group, 2-Isopropylimidazole is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 110.16 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.
