The occurrence of (1S,2S,3S,4R)-1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentaol is closely related to a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
(1S,2S,3S,4R)-1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentaol (CAS 6631-57-8), molecular formula C20H32O6 and molecular weight 368.46 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of (1S,2S,3S,4R)-1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentaol (C20H32O6) is characterized by a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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), (1S,2S,3S,4R)-1-(1H-Benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentaol 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.
