Chemical Structure

Isoquinoline-5,8-dione CAS 50-46-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Isoquinoline-5,8-dione.

Isoquinoline-5,8-dione (CAS 50-46-4), molecular formula C9H5NO2 and molecular weight 159.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Isoquinoline-5,8-dione (C9H5NO2) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Isoquinoline-5,8-dione meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
