1-Benzyl-N-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-amine (CAS 43181-77-7), molecular formula C15H15N3 and molecular weight 237.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 1-Benzyl-N-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-amine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 237.30 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), 1-Benzyl-N-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-amine 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.
