Chemical Structure

1-(2-(M-tolyloxy)ethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbaldehyde CAS 889951-23-9 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 1-(2-(M-tolyloxy)ethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (C17H16N2O2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 280.32 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

1-(2-(M-tolyloxy)ethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 889951-23-9), molecular formula C17H16N2O2 and molecular weight 280.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
