Chemical Structure

3-Benzyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine CAS 61532-32-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Benzyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine.

3-Benzyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (CAS 61532-32-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H11N3 and a molecular weight of 209.25 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 3-Benzyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 209.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Benzyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
