Chemical Structure

Tert-butyl 2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-carboxylate CAS 901386-39-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Tert-butyl 2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-carboxylate is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Tert-butyl 2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-carboxylate (CAS 901386-39-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12N2O3 and a molecular weight of 184.19 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Tert-butyl 2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-carboxylate (C8H12N2O3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tert-butyl 2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-carboxylate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
