Chemical Structure

8-Methyl-6-chloroisoquinoline CAS 196875-78-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 177.63 g/mol gives 8-Methyl-6-chloroisoquinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

8-Methyl-6-chloroisoquinoline (CAS 196875-78-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8ClN and a molecular weight of 177.63 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 8-Methyl-6-chloroisoquinoline (C10H8ClN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

CATO manufactures 8-Methyl-6-chloroisoquinoline 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.
