Chemical Structure

3-(Aminomethyl)-2-methylphenol CAS 1179355-72-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-(Aminomethyl)-2-methylphenol is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 137.18 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).

CATO supplies 3-(Aminomethyl)-2-methylphenol (CAS 1179355-72-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H11NO, MW 137.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(Aminomethyl)-2-methylphenol 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.
