Chemical Structure

2-(6-Nitroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)acetic acid CAS 59128-18-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 221.17 g/mol gives 2-(6-Nitroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)acetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-(6-Nitroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)acetic acid (CAS 59128-18-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H7N3O4, MW 221.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(6-Nitroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)acetic acid (C9H7N3O4) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
