Chemical Structure

Imidazo[1,5-α]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid CAS 588720-29-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Imidazo[1,5-α]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Imidazo[1,5-α]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid (CAS 588720-29-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6N2O2 and a molecular weight of 162.15 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Imidazo[1,5-α]pyridine-7-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 162.15 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
