General description

9-(Methylaminomethyl)anthracene is an isocyanate derivatizing reagent.

Application

9-(Methylaminomethyl)anthracene (MAMA) was used as a model drug in the study of the effect of enzymatic degradation on the release behaviors of MAMA by UV-Vis spectroscopy. It was also used as a reagent in a sensitive method for determination of isocyanates in air by HPLC via UV or fluorescence detection.

Analytical reference standards generally are not available for non-monomeric isocyanate species, making accurate identification and quantitation by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) difficult. A successful derivatizing reagent must react rapidly with all isocyanate groups, the derivatized isocyanate must be detectable selectively
