Chemical Structure

3-Iodo-1H-indole-4-carbonitrile CAS 167084-11-9 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, iodine substitution, 3-Iodo-1H-indole-4-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.05 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

3-Iodo-1H-indole-4-carbonitrile (CAS 167084-11-9), molecular formula C9H5IN2 and molecular weight 268.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

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.
