7-Fluoro-4-iodo-1H-indole (CAS 1360883-26-6), molecular formula C8H5FIN and molecular weight 261.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 7-Fluoro-4-iodo-1H-indole (C8H5FIN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/iodine 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).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 7-Fluoro-4-iodo-1H-indole meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
