Chemical Structure

5-Fluoro-3-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid CAS 16381-46-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 5-Fluoro-3-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (C10H8FNO2) 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).
