The molecular framework of 1-(Tert-butyl) 2-ethyl 3-bromo-1H-indole-1,2-dicarboxylate (C16H18BrNO4) is characterized by a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).
1-(Tert-butyl) 2-ethyl 3-bromo-1H-indole-1,2-dicarboxylate (CAS 1135283-20-3), molecular formula C16H18BrNO4 and molecular weight 368.22 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.
