Chemical Structure

2,3,4-Trimethylquinoline CAS 2437-72-1 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 171.24 g/mol gives 2,3,4-Trimethylquinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 2,3,4-Trimethylquinoline (CAS 2437-72-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H13N, MW 171.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,3,4-Trimethylquinoline (C12H13N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group. 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.

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.
