Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-4-yl)acetate CAS 4764-81-2 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 2-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-4-yl)acetate (C14H15NO3) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Ethyl 2-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-4-yl)acetate (CAS 4764-81-2), molecular formula C14H15NO3 and molecular weight 245.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

CATO manufactures Ethyl 2-(1-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-4-yl)acetate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
