Chemical Structure

Methyl 1-chloro-4-methoxyisoquinoline-3-carboxylate CAS 170621-96-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 1-chloro-4-methoxyisoquinoline-3-carboxylate.

CATO supplies Methyl 1-chloro-4-methoxyisoquinoline-3-carboxylate (CAS 170621-96-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10ClNO3, MW 251.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, Methyl 1-chloro-4-methoxyisoquinoline-3-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 251.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
