Chemical Structure

(4-Methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)methanamine CAS 1369368-84-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (4-Methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)methanamine.

(4-Methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)methanamine (CAS 1369368-84-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12N2 and a molecular weight of 160.22 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, (4-Methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)methanamine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 160.22 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
