Chemical Structure

1-Methyl-5-vinyl-1H-imidazole CAS 56662-92-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-Methyl-5-vinyl-1H-imidazole.

1-Methyl-5-vinyl-1H-imidazole (CAS 56662-92-1), molecular formula C6H8N2 and molecular weight 108.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrile group, an aromatic ring system, 1-Methyl-5-vinyl-1H-imidazole is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 108.14 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).

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-Methyl-5-vinyl-1H-imidazole 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.
