Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(4-Chlorobenzyl)benzimidazole.
2-(4-Chlorobenzyl)benzimidazole (CAS 5468-66-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H11ClN2 and a molecular weight of 242.70 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 2-(4-Chlorobenzyl)benzimidazole (C14H11ClN2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures 2-(4-Chlorobenzyl)benzimidazole 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.
