Chemical Structure
Description
Benzyl n-[(4,5-dihydro-1h-imidazol-2-yl)methyl]carbamate (CAS 70984-91-7), molecular formula C12H15N3O2 and molecular weight 233.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Benzyl n-[(4,5-dihydro-1h-imidazol-2-yl)methyl]carbamate (C12H15N3O2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
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.
