5-Phenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[1,2-a]imidazole (CAS 60719-87-1), molecular formula C11H13N3 and molecular weight 187.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 5-Phenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[1,2-a]imidazole is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 187.24 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 5-Phenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[1,2-a]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.
