Chemical Structure

3-Acetyl-2-hydroxyquinoline-4-carboxylic acid CAS 84443-15-2 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 3-Acetyl-2-hydroxyquinoline-4-carboxylic acid (C12H9NO4) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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).
