Chemical Structure

Methyl 6-fluoro-3-iodo-5-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate CAS 1126423-38-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of Methyl 6-fluoro-3-iodo-5-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (C11H9FINO2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/iodine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Methyl 6-fluoro-3-iodo-5-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (CAS 1126423-38-8), molecular formula C11H9FINO2 and molecular weight 333.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
