Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4,7-Difluoro-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine.
4,7-Difluoro-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine (CAS 855006-72-3), molecular formula C6H3F2N3 and molecular weight 155.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4,7-Difluoro-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 155.10 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4,7-Difluoro-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
