2-Heptadecyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid CAS 84255-23-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-Heptadecyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid 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.

CATO supplies 2-Heptadecyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid (CAS 84255-23-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C21H38N2O2, MW 350.54 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Heptadecyl-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid (C21H38N2O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
