Chemical Structure

5-Methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole CAS 61406-19-7 chemical structure

Description

5-Methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (CAS 61406-19-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10N2 and a molecular weight of 182.22 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 5-Methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.22 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.
