Chemical Structure

6-Methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid hydrobromide CAS 820245-55-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 6-Methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid hydrobromide (CAS 820245-55-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8N2O2HBr, MW 257.09 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 6-Methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid hydrobromide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 257.09 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.
