Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 3-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)propanenitrile is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
3-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)propanenitrile (CAS 1079-30-7), molecular formula C12H12N2 and molecular weight 184.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C12H12N2, 3-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)propanenitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 184.24 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).
