Chemical Structure

2-(2-Phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethanamine CAS 1217-80-7 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-Phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethanamine 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.

2-(2-Phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethanamine (CAS 1217-80-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H16N2 and a molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2-(2-Phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethanamine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
