4-Chloro-8-methoxyquinoline has CAS reference 16778-21-5 and molecular formula C10H8ClNO. PubChem assigns this identity CID 12336662 and represents it with SMILES COC1=CC=CC2=C(C=CN=C21)Cl. The corresponding InChIKey is LCYDNBWXXPOMQL-UHFFFAOYSA-N. Formula and structural identifiers converge on one defined quinoline derivative.
The fused quinoline system contains one ring nitrogen and nine ring carbons. Chlorine is attached at position 4, while a methoxy group is attached at position 8. The methoxy substituent contributes the tenth carbon and the only oxygen in formula C10H8ClNO. The official connectivity consists of one component without a counterion or specified stereochemical layer. Position numbers matter because chloro- and methoxyquinoline isomers can share the same elemental formula. The SMILES fixes both attachments within the fused ring graph and thereby complements the readable locanted name.
When preparing an inquiry, identify the record with CAS 16778-21-5 and the full 4-chloro-8-methoxyquinoline name. Supply the amount being evaluated and reliable contact details, then place questions about supporting identity information in the inquiry text. CID 12336662 or InChIKey LCYDNBWXXPOMQL-UHFFFAOYSA-N can be added when the request comes from a chemical database. Rlavie can compare those references with the catalog entry before handling the message. This procedure preserves both ring locants and avoids substituting another compound that happens to have formula C10H8ClNO.
