The occurrence of (3,4-Dimethylphenyl)hydrazine xhydrochloride is closely related to a nitrile group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies (3,4-Dimethylphenyl)hydrazine xhydrochloride (CAS 86746-50-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H12N2HCl, MW 172.66 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Based on its molecular formula C8H12N2HCl, (3,4-Dimethylphenyl)hydrazine xhydrochloride contains a nitrile group, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 172.66 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), (3,4-Dimethylphenyl)hydrazine xhydrochloride 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.
