Chemical Structure

2-(2-(Methylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)acetic acid CAS 60738-38-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 222.26 g/mol gives 2-(2-(Methylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)acetic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(2-(Methylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)acetic acid (CAS 60738-38-7), molecular formula C10H10N2O2S and molecular weight 222.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(2-(Methylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)acetic acid (C10H10N2O2S) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone 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. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
