Chemical Structure

1,4-Phenylenedimethanamine dihydrochloride CAS 3057-45-2 chemical structure

Description

1,4-Phenylenedimethanamine dihydrochloride (CAS 3057-45-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H12N2HCl and a molecular weight of 172.66 g/mol.

Structurally, 1,4-Phenylenedimethanamine dihydrochloride (C8H12N2HCl) contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 172.66 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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), 1,4-Phenylenedimethanamine dihydrochloride 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.
