Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 175.27 g/mol gives 1-(Propan-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
1-(Propan-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (CAS 77796-20-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H17N and a molecular weight of 175.27 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 1-(Propan-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (C12H17N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-(Propan-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline 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.
