Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(2-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-1-yl)acetate CAS 1260673-29-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 2-(2-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-1-yl)acetate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 2-(2-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-1-yl)acetate (CAS 1260673-29-7), molecular formula C13H17NO3 and molecular weight 235.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C13H17NO3, Ethyl 2-(2-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-indol-1-yl)acetate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 235.28 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

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.
