Chemical Structure

8-Methyl-2,3,9,9a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indol-1-one CAS 14490-04-1 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 8-Methyl-2,3,9,9a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indol-1-one is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 200.24 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.

8-Methyl-2,3,9,9a-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indol-1-one (CAS 14490-04-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12N2O and a molecular weight of 200.24 g/mol.

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.
