Chemical Structure

6-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic acid CAS 70585-55-6 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 6-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic acid.

6-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic acid (CAS 70585-55-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H7NO3 and a molecular weight of 189.17 g/mol.

6-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic acid (C10H7NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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), 6-Hydroxyquinoline-8-carboxylic acid 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.
