Chloroquine

About Chloroquine

Chloroquine is a high-purity reference standard of Chloroquine carrying the CAS registry number 54-05-7. The compound has the formula C18H26ClN3, corresponding to a molecular weight of 319.9 g/mol. The IUPAC name is 4-N-(7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)-1-N,1-N-diethylpentane-1,4-diamine. Common synonyms include Chloraquine and Chlorochin.

It is supplied as a solid. Store the standard in its sealed vial, protected from light and moisture, and follow the storage condition printed on the COA. Under GHS it is labelled “Warning”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

Laboratories use this Chloroquine standard for identity and assay testing, system suitability checks and method validation supporting ANDA and DMF filings. It is used across pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

We offer Chloroquine in 10 mg, 25 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg packs with a batch-specific COA, and ship to customers worldwide.
