Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-formyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate CAS 22120-89-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 262.22 g/mol gives Ethyl 3-formyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Ethyl 3-formyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (CAS 22120-89-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10N2O5, MW 262.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethyl 3-formyl-5-nitro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 262.22 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.
