Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-1H-benzoimidazole CAS 83741-35-9 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 4-Bromo-1H-benzoimidazole.

4-Bromo-1H-benzoimidazole (CAS 83741-35-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H5BrN2 and a molecular weight of 197.03 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrile group, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Bromo-1H-benzoimidazole is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 197.03 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

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.
