Chemical Structure

7-Chloro-5-methylquinoxaline CAS 532934-94-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 7-Chloro-5-methylquinoxaline is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

7-Chloro-5-methylquinoxaline (CAS 532934-94-4), molecular formula C9H7ClN2 and molecular weight 178.62 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 7-Chloro-5-methylquinoxaline (C9H7ClN2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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), 7-Chloro-5-methylquinoxaline 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.
