5-Chloroisoquinoline-8-carbonitrile CAS 1256463-60-1 chemical structure

Description

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

5-Chloroisoquinoline-8-carbonitrile (CAS 1256463-60-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H5ClN2 and a molecular weight of 188.61 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 5-Chloroisoquinoline-8-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 188.61 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

CATO manufactures 5-Chloroisoquinoline-8-carbonitrile 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.
