2-(3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-2-nonyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium-1-yl)acetate hydroxide, sodium salt CAS 68334-21-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-2-nonyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium-1-yl)acetate hydroxide, sodium salt is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-2-nonyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium-1-yl)acetate hydroxide, sodium salt (CAS 68334-21-4), molecular formula C16H30N2NaO3 and molecular weight 321.41 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-(3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-2-nonyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium-1-yl)acetate hydroxide, sodium salt is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 321.41 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
