Chemical Structure

5-(sec-Butyl)-2-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole CAS 98396-30-6 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(sec-Butyl)-2-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole 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.

5-(sec-Butyl)-2-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (CAS 98396-30-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16N2 and a molecular weight of 188.27 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H16N2, 5-(sec-Butyl)-2-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 188.27 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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