Chemical Structure

3-(Aminomethyl)-5-methoxyphenol CAS 149555-67-9 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 153.18 g/mol gives 3-(Aminomethyl)-5-methoxyphenol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-(Aminomethyl)-5-methoxyphenol (CAS 149555-67-9), molecular formula C8H11NO2 and molecular weight 153.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-(Aminomethyl)-5-methoxyphenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 153.18 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).

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), 3-(Aminomethyl)-5-methoxyphenol 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.
