2-(2-Mercapto-1H-indol-3-yl)acetic acid CAS 156135-50-1

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-Mercapto-1H-indol-3-yl)acetic acid is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(2-Mercapto-1H-indol-3-yl)acetic acid (CAS 156135-50-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H9NO2S, MW 207.25 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-(2-Mercapto-1H-indol-3-yl)acetic acid (C10H9NO2S) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 207.25 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 2-(2-Mercapto-1H-indol-3-yl)acetic acid 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.
