Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-amine hydrochloride.
2-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-amine hydrochloride (CAS 172896-29-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16N2HCl and a molecular weight of 224.73 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 2-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-amine hydrochloride is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 224.73 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.
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), 2-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-amine hydrochloride 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.
