Chemical Structure

8-Methylquinoline-2,4-dicarboxylic acid CAS 413573-97-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 8-Methylquinoline-2,4-dicarboxylic acid is closely related to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

8-Methylquinoline-2,4-dicarboxylic acid (CAS 413573-97-4), molecular formula C12H9NO4 and molecular weight 231.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C12H9NO4, 8-Methylquinoline-2,4-dicarboxylic acid contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 231.20 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).

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.
