Chemical Structure

1-Ethyl-2-methylquinolin-1-ium tetrafluoroborate CAS 21658-58-2 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 1-Ethyl-2-methylquinolin-1-ium tetrafluoroborate.

CATO supplies 1-Ethyl-2-methylquinolin-1-ium tetrafluoroborate (CAS 21658-58-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H14NBF4, MW 259.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1-Ethyl-2-methylquinolin-1-ium tetrafluoroborate (C12H14NBF4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.5, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 259.05 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
