Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-8-methoxyquinoline CAS 16778-21-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Chloro-8-methoxyquinoline is closely related to an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-Chloro-8-methoxyquinoline (CAS 16778-21-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H18ClNO, MW 203.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-Chloro-8-methoxyquinoline (C10H18ClNO) contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Chloro-8-methoxyquinoline 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.
