Chemical Structure

2,7-Dichloro-4-methylquinoline CAS 59666-16-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2,7-Dichloro-4-methylquinoline 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.

2,7-Dichloro-4-methylquinoline (CAS 59666-16-9), molecular formula C10H7Cl2N and molecular weight 212.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2,7-Dichloro-4-methylquinoline (C10H7Cl2N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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 2,7-Dichloro-4-methylquinoline 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.
