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.
1-Methylisoquinoline (CAS 1721-93-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9N and a molecular weight of 143.19 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 1-Methylisoquinoline is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 143.19 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.
CATO manufactures 1-Methylisoquinoline 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.
