Chemical Structure

1,4-Bis(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)butane CAS 4746-56-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 290.36 g/mol gives 1,4-Bis(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)butane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1,4-Bis(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)butane (CAS 4746-56-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H18N4 and a molecular weight of 290.36 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C18H18N4, 1,4-Bis(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)butane contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 290.36 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures 1,4-Bis(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)butane 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.
