8-Bromo-2-(chloromethyl)-6-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine CAS 901124-75-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

8-Bromo-2-(chloromethyl)-6-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (CAS 901124-75-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H8BrClN2 and a molecular weight of 259.53 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution, 8-Bromo-2-(chloromethyl)-6-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 259.53 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

CATO manufactures 8-Bromo-2-(chloromethyl)-6-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine 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.
