Chemical Structure

2-(Hydroxymethyl)-1H-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazole CAS 7471-10-5 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(Hydroxymethyl)-1H-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazole (C12H10N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

2-(Hydroxymethyl)-1H-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazole (CAS 7471-10-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10N2O and a molecular weight of 198.22 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
