2-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (CAS 1612-65-3), molecular formula C10H13N and molecular weight 147.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 2-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 147.22 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).
CATO manufactures 2-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
