Chemical Structure

5,6-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline CAS 103797-01-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 191.23 g/mol gives 5,6-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5,6-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline (CAS 103797-01-9), molecular formula C11H13NO2 and molecular weight 191.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 5,6-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 191.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
