Chemical Structure

4-Benzyloxyindole-3-acetonitrile CAS 1464-11-5 chemical structure

Description

4-Benzyloxyindole-3-acetonitrile (CAS 1464-11-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H14N2O and a molecular weight of 262.31 g/mol.

Owing to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Benzyloxyindole-3-acetonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 262.31 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

CATO manufactures 4-Benzyloxyindole-3-acetonitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
