Chemical Structure

1-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-2-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 1373438-98-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

1-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-2-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 1373438-98-2), molecular formula C10H8FNO and molecular weight 177.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-2-yl)ethan-1-one (C10H8FNO) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
