Chemical Structure

8-Mercaptoquinoline CAS 491-33-8 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 8-Mercaptoquinoline (C9H7NS) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 161.22 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

8-Mercaptoquinoline (CAS 491-33-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H7NS and a molecular weight of 161.22 g/mol.

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 8-Mercaptoquinoline 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.
