Chemical Structure

2,4,5-Tribromo-1-vinylimidazole CAS 41205-31-6 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 2,4,5-Tribromo-1-vinylimidazole.

2,4,5-Tribromo-1-vinylimidazole (CAS 41205-31-6), molecular formula C5H3Br3N2 and molecular weight 330.80 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,4,5-Tribromo-1-vinylimidazole (C5H3Br3N2) is characterized by a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, 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).

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), 2,4,5-Tribromo-1-vinylimidazole 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.
