1,3-Bis[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]propane
1. Basic Information
Name: 1,3-Bis[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]propane
Alias: BIS-TRIS propane
CAS No.: 64431-96-5
Molecular Formula: C11H26N2O6
Molecular Weight: 282.33
Category: Biological buffer reagent, cell culture pH stabilizer, biochemical laboratory raw material, electrophoresis buffer additive
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: White crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless
- Solubility: Freely soluble in water; soluble in methanol; slightly soluble in ethanol; insoluble in acetone, ether, hydrocarbon solvents
- Melting Point: 164–168 ℃
- Density (predicted): 1.23 g/cm3
- Hygroscopy: Moderately hygroscopic, easy to absorb moisture under high humidity
- Aqueous property: Weak alkaline buffer, effective buffering range pH 6.0–9.0; stable aqueous solution at room temperature
Chemical Properties
- Molecular structure: Two tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethyl groups connected by propane alkyl chain, multiple hydroxyl groups and tertiary amine groups
- Buffer performance: Excellent pH buffering capacity, low metal ion chelation interference, low cytotoxicity
- Hydroxyl characteristic: Multi-hydroxyl structure has weak metal chelating ability, does not interfere with most enzyme activity detection
- Thermal stability: Stable below 120 ℃; long-time high temperature heating will cause slight dehydration
- Photostability: Good light resistance, no discoloration under long-term light irradiation
- Compatibility: Compatible with various cell culture mediums, biochemical detection reagents; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong acid
