6-Iodo-2-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (CAS 61982-60-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H6IN3O3 and a molecular weight of 355.09 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, 6-Iodo-2-(5-nitrofuran-2-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 355.09 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.
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.
