Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including (4'-Methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl)methanamine.
(4'-Methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl)methanamine (CAS 40694-54-0), molecular formula C14H15N and molecular weight 197.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, (4'-Methyl-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl)methanamine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 197.28 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
