6,7-Dimethoxy-1-phenyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline (CAS 10172-51-7), molecular formula C17H17NO2 and molecular weight 267.32 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 6,7-Dimethoxy-1-phenyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline (C17H17NO2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 6,7-Dimethoxy-1-phenyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
