1-Benzyl-5-bromo-1H-indole CAS 10075-51-1 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

1-Benzyl-5-bromo-1H-indole (CAS 10075-51-1), molecular formula C15H12BrN and molecular weight 286.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 1-Benzyl-5-bromo-1H-indole is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Benzyl-5-bromo-1H-indole meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
