Description
Imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde is a heterocyclic aldehyde reagent with CAS number 10111-08-7 and the empirical formula C₄H₄N₂O. It has a molar mass of 96,09 g/mol. The aldehyde functionality on the imidazole ring makes the compound a useful building block for condensation, reductive amination and heterocycle elaboration in medicinal chemistry and biochemical research. This material from manufacturer Carl ROTH supports construction of imidazole-containing scaffolds, ligand motifs and multifunctional intermediates used in pharmaceutical and fine-chemical programmes. Clear structural identity and a practical small pack size help research groups evaluate new routes without committing large inventories. Applications include preparation of Schiff bases, fused-ring systems and other nitrogen-rich targets where a 2-formylimidazole unit is required. Academic and industrial laboratories can incorporate the reagent into discovery chemistry, probe synthesis and optimisation workflows that depend on a defined imidazole aldehyde starting material.
This article is part of Bases & alkalis, in Acids & bases.

Questions about Imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde, 10 g
What is this article?
Imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde, 10 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.
