Chemical Structure

5-Fluoro-8-methylquinoline CAS 88474-18-4 chemical structure

Description

5-Fluoro-8-methylquinoline (C10H8FN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5-Fluoro-8-methylquinoline (CAS 88474-18-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8FN and a molecular weight of 161.18 g/mol.

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 5-Fluoro-8-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.
