4-Oxo-6-phenyl-1,4-dihydrocinnoline-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 36991-46-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H10N2O3 and a molecular weight of 266.25 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Oxo-6-phenyl-1,4-dihydrocinnoline-3-carboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 266.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
