Description
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-[(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)methyl]-1H-imidazole hydrochloride 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.
4-[(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)methyl]-1H-imidazole hydrochloride (CAS 78892-45-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H14N2HCl and a molecular weight of 222.72 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 4-[(2,6-Dimethylphenyl)methyl]-1H-imidazole hydrochloride is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.72 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
