Description

2-(Trichloromethyl)-1H-benzimidazole (2,3,4-TCMB) is an analytical chemistry reagent that is used to measure the concentration of pyrrole in a sample. It is an electron deficient molecule with two chlorine atoms. In acidic conditions, 2,3,4-TCMB forms a stable salt with 2-chlorobenzimidazole and stabilizes the nucleophilic plate. This compound can be used to titrate pyrrole in organic solvents and plates.
2-(Trichloromethyl)-1H-benzimidazole has been shown to have a similar chemical structure to nicotine and reacts with the amine group on the surface of glass plates.
