Chemical Structure

2-Methoxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid CAS 70659-29-9 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Methoxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 203.19 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies 2-Methoxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 70659-29-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H9NO3, MW 203.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
