CATO supplies 2-(4-Nitro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)thiazole-4-carbaldehyde (CAS 62720-08-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H4N4O3S, MW 224.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 2-(4-Nitro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)thiazole-4-carbaldehyde (C7H4N4O3S) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 224.20 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).
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.
