Chemical Structure

2-Benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline CAS 13605-95-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline 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-Benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (CAS 13605-95-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H17N and a molecular weight of 223.31 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2-Benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 223.31 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.
