Chemical Structure

1-Benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-5-ylamine CAS 878733-41-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-Benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-5-ylamine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 1-Benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-5-ylamine (CAS 878733-41-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H16N2, MW 236.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1-Benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-5-ylamine (C16H16N2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 236.31 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 1-Benzyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-5-ylamine under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
