Chemical Structure

1-((1H-Imidazol-2-yl)methyl)guanidine CAS 776281-59-5 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 1-((1H-Imidazol-2-yl)methyl)guanidine (CAS 776281-59-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H9N5, MW 139.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1-((1H-Imidazol-2-yl)methyl)guanidine (C5H9N5) is characterized by a nitrile group. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-((1H-Imidazol-2-yl)methyl)guanidine 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.
