CATO supplies 2-(2-Chloro-5-nitrophenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carbonitrile (CAS 496794-76-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H7ClN4O2, MW 298.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 2-(2-Chloro-5-nitrophenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.68 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
CATO manufactures 2-(2-Chloro-5-nitrophenyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carbonitrile 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.
