Chemical Structure

2-(1-Phenylethyl)-1H-imidazole CAS 944263-28-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(1-Phenylethyl)-1H-imidazole.

2-(1-Phenylethyl)-1H-imidazole (CAS 944263-28-9), molecular formula C11H12N2 and molecular weight 172.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(1-Phenylethyl)-1H-imidazole (C11H12N2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-(1-Phenylethyl)-1H-imidazole 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.
