Chemical Structure

5,6-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbonitrile CAS 88422-30-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5,6-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbonitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 5,6-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbonitrile (CAS 88422-30-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9N3, MW 171.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C10H9N3, 5,6-Dimethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 171.20 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

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.
