Chemical Structure

5-(Chloromethyl)-1-isopropyl-1H-imidazole CAS 776290-49-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 158.63 g/mol gives 5-(Chloromethyl)-1-isopropyl-1H-imidazole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-(Chloromethyl)-1-isopropyl-1H-imidazole (CAS 776290-49-4), molecular formula C7H11ClN2 and molecular weight 158.63 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-(Chloromethyl)-1-isopropyl-1H-imidazole (C7H11ClN2) is characterized by a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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

CATO manufactures 5-(Chloromethyl)-1-isopropyl-1H-imidazole under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
