6-Fluoro-5-hydroxyindole CAS 288386-15-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 6-Fluoro-5-hydroxyindole 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.

6-Fluoro-5-hydroxyindole (CAS 288386-15-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6FNO and a molecular weight of 151.14 g/mol.

Structurally, 6-Fluoro-5-hydroxyindole (C8H6FNO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 151.14 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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