Description
4,5-Dicyanoimidazole is a heterocyclic nitrile compound with CAS number 1122-28-7 and empirical formula C₅H₂N₄, offering a molar mass of 118,1 g/mol for stoichiometric planning and analytical confirmation. The imidazole core bearing two cyano substituents makes it a useful intermediate and activator-type reagent in organic and bioorganic synthesis, including oligonucleotide and peptide-related chemistry where dicyanoimidazole derivatives are established. Clear molecular identity data help chemists integrate the reagent into validated procedures and inventory systems with minimal ambiguity. Material from manufacturer Carl ROTH is positioned for research and development groups that need reliable access to specialty heterocycles. The substantial pack supports efficient ordering for multi-user facilities while remaining suitable for controlled laboratory handling. Consistent CAS, formula and mass data underpin reproducible weighing and documentation across experimental series.

Questions about 4,5-Dicyanoimidazole, 250 g
What is this article?
4,5-Dicyanoimidazole, 250 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Bases & alkalis, inside Acids & bases, in Lab chemicals.
A base or an alkali is sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonia and their relatives, as solid or as solution. The carbonate that a hydroxide picks up from the air changes a titre. Concentration and purity are the specification. Concentrated alkalis attack skin and aluminium.
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.
