Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-8-carbonitrile CAS 53400-66-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-8-carbonitrile.

3-Methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-8-carbonitrile (CAS 53400-66-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12N2 and a molecular weight of 172.23 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 3-Methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-8-carbonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 172.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), 3-Methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-8-carbonitrile 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.
