Chemical Structure

4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid CAS 126855-84-3 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.

CATO supplies 4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 126855-84-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H8F3NO3, MW 271.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid (C12H8F3NO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
