Chemical Structure

2-Amino-6-methylphenol hydrochloride CAS 78886-51-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 159.61 g/mol gives 2-Amino-6-methylphenol hydrochloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2-Amino-6-methylphenol hydrochloride (CAS 78886-51-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H9NOHCl, MW 159.61 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Amino-6-methylphenol hydrochloride (C7H9NOHCl) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 159.61 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), 2-Amino-6-methylphenol hydrochloride 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.
