2,2,4-Trimethyl-4-phenyl-6-trityl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (CAS 121830-51-1), molecular formula C37H35N and molecular weight 493.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2,2,4-Trimethyl-4-phenyl-6-trityl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 493.68 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2,4-Trimethyl-4-phenyl-6-trityl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline 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.
