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.
(1-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-4-yl)methanamine (CAS 646997-14-0), molecular formula C11H16N2 and molecular weight 176.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, (1-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-4-yl)methanamine is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 176.26 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), (1-Methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-4-yl)methanamine 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.
