Chemical Structure

(2-Amino-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol hydrochloride CAS 62174-85-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2-Amino-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol hydrochloride is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(2-Amino-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol hydrochloride (CAS 62174-85-0), molecular formula C4H7N3OHCl and molecular weight 149.58 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(2-Amino-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol hydrochloride (C4H7N3OHCl) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
