Chemical Structure

3-(Hydroxymethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid CAS 132623-36-0 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 3-(Hydroxymethyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (C10H9NO3) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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 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).
