1-(3-Methylpyridin-2-yl)ethanamine dihydrochloride (C8H12N2HCl) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).
1-(3-Methylpyridin-2-yl)ethanamine dihydrochloride (CAS 2061979-75-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12N2HCl and a molecular weight of 172.66 g/mol.
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.
