Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 250.30 g/mol gives 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carbaldehyde distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carbaldehyde (CAS 881041-64-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H14N2O, MW 250.30 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carbaldehyde (C16H14N2O) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
CATO manufactures 2-(3,4-Dimethylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carbaldehyde 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.
