Chemical Structure

1-Hydroxy-N,N-bis(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylmethanaminium iodide CAS 652978-17-1 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 1-Hydroxy-N,N-bis(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylmethanaminium iodide.

1-Hydroxy-N,N-bis(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylmethanaminium iodide (CAS 652978-17-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula IC4H12NO3 and a molecular weight of 249.04 g/mol.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, 1-Hydroxy-N,N-bis(hydroxymethyl)-N-methylmethanaminium iodide is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 249.04 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
