4-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic Acid CAS 386207-63-2 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

4-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic Acid (CAS 386207-63-2), molecular formula C10H7NO3 and molecular weight 189.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic Acid (C10H7NO3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
