CATO supplies 3-(1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile (CAS 790174-74-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H7N3O, MW 149.15 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C7H7N3O, 3-(1-Methyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 149.15 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
