Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 215.33 g/mol gives 2-Cyclohexyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
2-Cyclohexyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (CAS 13605-96-4), molecular formula C15H21N and molecular weight 215.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 2-Cyclohexyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (C15H21N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 215.33 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
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.
