Chemical Structure

1-(4-Butyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)ethanone CAS 945408-32-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(4-Butyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)ethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 166.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

1-(4-Butyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)ethanone (CAS 945408-32-2), molecular formula C9H14N2O and molecular weight 166.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(4-Butyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)ethanone 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.
