Chemical Structure

2-[1-(6-Methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethyl]-1H-benzimidazole CAS 709000-02-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 2-[1-(6-Methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethyl]-1H-benzimidazole (CAS 709000-02-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C20H18N2O, MW 302.37 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-[1-(6-Methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethyl]-1H-benzimidazole is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 302.37 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.

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.
