Chemical Structure

1,3-Dichloro-5-methylisoquinoline CAS 21902-40-9 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C10H7Cl2N, 1,3-Dichloro-5-methylisoquinoline contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 212.08 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

1,3-Dichloro-5-methylisoquinoline (CAS 21902-40-9), molecular formula C10H7Cl2N and molecular weight 212.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
