Chemical Structure

(3-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)methanamine hydrochloride CAS 1646570-05-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (3-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)methanamine hydrochloride is closely related to a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(3-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)methanamine hydrochloride (CAS 1646570-05-9), molecular formula C8H10BrNHCl and molecular weight 236.54 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution, (3-Bromo-5-methylphenyl)methanamine hydrochloride is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.54 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
