N-Methylcoclaurine CAS 5096-70-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies N-Methylcoclaurine (CAS 5096-70-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H21NO3, MW 299.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, N-Methylcoclaurine (C18H21NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 299.36 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), N-Methylcoclaurine 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.
