Chemical Structure

6-Methylquinoline-2-carboxylic acid CAS 15733-84-3 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Methylquinoline-2-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.

6-Methylquinoline-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 15733-84-3), molecular formula C11H9NO2 and molecular weight 187.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

6-Methylquinoline-2-carboxylic acid (C11H9NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
