Chemical Structure

2-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline CAS 25199-86-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 231.60 g/mol gives 2-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (CAS 25199-86-4), molecular formula C10H5ClF3N and molecular weight 231.60 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (C10H5ClF3N) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/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), 2-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)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.
