Chemical Structure

7-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid CAS 80353-94-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 7-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid.

7-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 80353-94-2), molecular formula C9H16N2O2 and molecular weight 184.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 7-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (C9H16N2O2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 184.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

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.
