Chemical Structure

2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)-8-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine CAS 881041-49-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)-8-methylimidazo[1,2-a]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.

2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)-8-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (CAS 881041-49-2), molecular formula C16H16N2 and molecular weight 236.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)-8-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (C16H16N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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