2-Heptylbenzimidazole CAS 5851-49-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 216.32 g/mol gives 2-Heptylbenzimidazole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Heptylbenzimidazole (CAS 5851-49-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H20N2 and a molecular weight of 216.32 g/mol.

2-Heptylbenzimidazole (C14H20N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Heptylbenzimidazole 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.
