Chemical Structure

8-Nitroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid CAS 121689-22-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 8-Nitroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

8-Nitroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 121689-22-3), molecular formula C10H6N2O4 and molecular weight 218.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

8-Nitroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid (C10H6N2O4) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
