Chemical Structure

5-Chloro-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile CAS 194490-14-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 176.60 g/mol gives 5-Chloro-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 5-Chloro-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (CAS 194490-14-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H5ClN2, MW 176.60 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution, 5-Chloro-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 176.60 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
