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.
4-[(2-Methyl-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]-benzoic acid hydrochloride (CAS 907948-02-1), molecular formula C16H14N2O2HCl and molecular weight 302.76 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
4-[(2-Methyl-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]-benzoic acid hydrochloride (C16H14N2O2HCl) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
CATO manufactures 4-[(2-Methyl-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]-benzoic acid hydrochloride 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.
