Chemical Structure

1-Methyl-5-aminomethylimidazole CAS 486414-86-2 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 1-Methyl-5-aminomethylimidazole (CAS 486414-86-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H9N3, MW 111.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrile group, 1-Methyl-5-aminomethylimidazole is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 111.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Methyl-5-aminomethylimidazole 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.
