China and India are the leading exporters of Imidazole (CAS 288-32-4), accounting for the majority of global export volume, while the United States, Germany, and South Korea represent the largest importers. Imidazole prices have remained relatively stable amid steady demand from pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors. Export volumes from China have increased modestly over the past two years, while Indian exports have plateaued, and U.S. imports have grown consistently, reflecting sustained industrial uptake.
Imidazole is a white to off-white crystalline solid with a chloroform-like odor, melting at 89–91 °C and boiling at 256 °C. It is a heterocyclic aromatic compound containing two nitrogen atoms in a five-membered ring and is moderately water-soluble and hygroscopic. As a versatile organic chemical intermediate, imidazole serves as a key building block in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals—including antifungal agents (e.g., ketoconazole), proton pump inhibitors, and anticancer compounds—as well as agrochemicals such as fungicides and plant growth regulators. It is also employed in the production of photographic chemicals, corrosion inhibitors, and epoxy curing agents for coatings and composites.
Excellent for buffers in the range of pH 6.2-7.8
Imidazole is a heterocyclic compound with a five-membered planar ring. It is amphoteric and highly polar.The pharmacophore of imidazole exists in bioactive compounds including amino acids, plant growth regulators and therapeutic agents.
