5-Amino-1MQ is a synthetic quinolinium-based small molecule supplied for controlled laboratory and analytical research. The commonly supplied iodide form consists of a positively charged 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium species paired with an iodide counter-ion.
Unlike peptide-based research materials, 5-Amino-1MQ does not contain an amino-acid sequence or peptide bonds. Its scientific identity should therefore be documented using its exact salt form, molecular formula, molecular weight, and lot-specific analytical information.
The commonly referenced iodide salt is listed with molecular formula C₁₀H₁₁IN₂, molecular weight approximately 286.12 g/mol, and CAS 42464-96-0.
Research Applications
5-Amino-1MQ may be examined in controlled non-clinical research involving:
- Small-molecule characterization
- Enzyme-associated biochemical research
- Molecular interaction studies
- Structure-activity analysis
- Analytical chemistry
- Comparative compound studies
- Non-clinical biochemical and cellular models
Any experimental findings should remain specific to the applicable research system and should not be interpreted as evidence of therapeutic effectiveness, metabolic benefit, weight-related outcomes, or suitability for human use.
Chemical & Structural Information
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule quinolinium salt, not a peptide.
Its commonly supplied iodide form contains:
- 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium cation
- Iodide counter-ion
The bare cation has different molecular specifications from the iodide salt, so the two should not be mixed in technical documentation.
Analytical Identification
Relevant analytical characterization may include:
- Chemical identity confirmation
- Molecular mass assessment
- Counter-ion verification
- Chromatographic purity testing
- Spectrometric characterization
- Lot-specific quality analysis
The precise salt form should be confirmed before molecular specifications are used in calculations or documentation.
Specifications & Documentation
Lot-specific documentation should be reviewed for:
- Compound identity
- Salt form
- CAS number
- Molecular formula
- Molecular weight
- Purity specification
- Analytical testing
- Lot or batch information
- Certificate of Analysis
- Storage requirements
Authenticated product-specific documentation should take precedence over generalized reference values.
Storage & Handling
Store according to the conditions stated on the product label and Certificate of Analysis. Protect the material from environmental conditions that could compromise chemical integrity.
Handling should follow established laboratory procedures appropriate for small-molecule research compounds.
