Chemical Structure

1-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde CAS 6002-15-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 172.18 g/mol gives 1-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 6002-15-9), molecular formula C10H8N2O and molecular weight 172.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (C10H8N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. 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.

CATO manufactures 1-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde 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.
