Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 5-Chloro-3-methyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2(3H)-one.
CATO supplies 5-Chloro-3-methyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2(3H)-one (CAS 89660-20-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6ClN3O, MW 183.60 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, 5-Chloro-3-methyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2(3H)-one (C7H6ClN3O) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 183.60 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
