Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-Methyl-6-quinolinecarboxylate CAS 855763-77-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 215.25 g/mol gives Ethyl 2-Methyl-6-quinolinecarboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Ethyl 2-Methyl-6-quinolinecarboxylate (CAS 855763-77-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H13NO2, MW 215.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 2-Methyl-6-quinolinecarboxylate (C13H13NO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 215.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.
