Chemical Structure

6-Methyl-1H-indole-2-carbonitrile CAS 1513412-80-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 6-Methyl-1H-indole-2-carbonitrile.

6-Methyl-1H-indole-2-carbonitrile (CAS 1513412-80-0), molecular formula C10H8N2 and molecular weight 156.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H8N2, 6-Methyl-1H-indole-2-carbonitrile contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 156.18 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Methyl-1H-indole-2-carbonitrile 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.
