Chemical Structure

2-(sec-Butyl)-1H-imidazole CAS 61893-06-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(sec-Butyl)-1H-imidazole is closely related to a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(sec-Butyl)-1H-imidazole (CAS 61893-06-9), molecular formula C7H12N2 and molecular weight 124.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(sec-Butyl)-1H-imidazole (C7H12N2) contains a nitrile group. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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 2-(sec-Butyl)-1H-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.
