Chemical Structure

4-Amino-5-methylimidazole Dihydrochloride CAS 79681-02-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 4-Amino-5-methylimidazole Dihydrochloride (C4H7N3HCl) 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.

4-Amino-5-methylimidazole Dihydrochloride (CAS 79681-02-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H7N3HCl and a molecular weight of 133.58 g/mol.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 4-Amino-5-methylimidazole Dihydrochloride 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.
