Chemical Structure

Ethyl 4-hydroxy-8-methoxyquinoline-2-carboxylate CAS 55895-59-5 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 4-hydroxy-8-methoxyquinoline-2-carboxylate 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.

Ethyl 4-hydroxy-8-methoxyquinoline-2-carboxylate (CAS 55895-59-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H13NO4 and a molecular weight of 247.25 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 4-hydroxy-8-methoxyquinoline-2-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 247.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
