Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Nonanoic acid 5-bromo-4-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl ester.
Nonanoic acid 5-bromo-4-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl ester (CAS 133950-77-3), molecular formula C17H21BrClNO2 and molecular weight 386.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, Nonanoic acid 5-bromo-4-chloro-1H-indol-3-yl ester (C17H21BrClNO2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 386.71 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
