Chemical Structure

(5-Methoxy-1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methanol CAS 144265-41-8 chemical structure

Description

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

(5-Methoxy-1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methanol (CAS 144265-41-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H13NO2 and a molecular weight of 191.23 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C11H13NO2, (5-Methoxy-1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methanol contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 191.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
