Chemical Structure

N,N,N-Trimethyl-1-phenylmethanaminium iodide CAS 4525-46-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 277.14 g/mol gives N,N,N-Trimethyl-1-phenylmethanaminium iodide distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies N,N,N-Trimethyl-1-phenylmethanaminium iodide (CAS 4525-46-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H16NI, MW 277.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, N,N,N-Trimethyl-1-phenylmethanaminium iodide (C10H16NI) contains a nitrile group, iodine 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 277.14 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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), N,N,N-Trimethyl-1-phenylmethanaminium iodide 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.
