Chemical Structure

4-Methyl-2-(trichloromethyl)quinoline CAS 203626-79-3 chemical structure

Description

4-Methyl-2-(trichloromethyl)quinoline (CAS 203626-79-3), molecular formula C11H8Cl3N and molecular weight 260.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-Methyl-2-(trichloromethyl)quinoline (C11H8Cl3N) 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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-Methyl-2-(trichloromethyl)quinoline 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.
