The occurrence of 5-Chloro-N-[(1E)-(dimethylamino)methylidene]-3-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carboxamide is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
5-Chloro-N-[(1E)-(dimethylamino)methylidene]-3-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carboxamide (CAS 338401-01-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H16ClN3O and a molecular weight of 325.79 g/mol.
Structurally, 5-Chloro-N-[(1E)-(dimethylamino)methylidene]-3-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carboxamide (C18H16ClN3O) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 325.79 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
