Description
4-Imidazoleacetic acid hydrochloride is an imidazole-derived carboxylic acid salt supplied at a minimum purity of 95 %, with CAS number 3251-69-2. Its empirical formula is C₅H₆N₂O₂HCl and the molar mass is 162,57 g/mol. The hydrochloride form offers a convenient solid handle on the 4-imidazoleacetic acid scaffold, which is relevant in histamine metabolism studies and as a heterocyclic building block in medicinal and biochemical chemistry. Research groups employ imidazoleacetic acid derivatives in pathway analysis, ligand design and as intermediates toward more complex imidazole-containing structures. Clear CAS identity, stated purity and molar mass support accurate weighing and formulation in buffer or organic media. Offered from manufacturer Carl ROTH, this biochemical reagent integrates into laboratory workflows spanning organic synthesis, metabolite research and analytical method setup. The straightforward specification profile helps ensure consistent batch use across exploratory and routine experimental programmes without unnecessary complexity.

Questions about 4-Imidazoleacetic acid hydrochloride, min. 95 %, 5 g
What is this article?
4-Imidazoleacetic acid hydrochloride, min. 95 %, 5 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Acids, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
An acid on this shelf is the substance itself, concentrated or as a stated solution: hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, acetic and the rest. Concentration, purity and the trace metals decide the use. A concentrated acid and a volumetric solution of the same name are different products, and both burn.
An acid donates a proton. A base accepts one. In the bottle, the practical differences are the concentration, the purity and the anion or cation that comes along. Concentrated mineral acids are a different article from a dilute volumetric solution. The water in the acid, and the trace metals, decide whether it can be used for analysis. Check the substance on PubChem and the classification on ECHA CLP. Transport is the UNECE dangerous-goods framework. The legal texts are the CLP Regulation and REACH.
