Chemical Structure

1-phenyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine CAS 61532-35-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-phenyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-phenyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine (CAS 61532-35-2), molecular formula C12H9N3 and molecular weight 195.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C12H9N3, 1-phenyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 195.22 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 1-phenyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]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.
