Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 183.13 g/mol gives 6,7,8-Trifluoroquinoline distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
6,7,8-Trifluoroquinoline (CAS 5280-09-1), molecular formula C9H4F3N and molecular weight 183.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
6,7,8-Trifluoroquinoline (C9H4F3N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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 6,7,8-Trifluoroquinoline 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.
