The occurrence of 1,2-Dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1,2-Dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (CAS 16055-19-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H15N and a molecular weight of 161.24 g/mol.
Structurally, 1,2-Dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (C11H15N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 161.24 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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), 1,2-Dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline 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.
