2-((1-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)malononitrile CAS 338409-96-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-((1-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)malononitrile.

CATO supplies 2-((1-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)malononitrile (CAS 338409-96-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H8ClF3N4, MW 372.73 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-((1-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)malononitrile (C18H8ClF3N4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/chlorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 15.0, corresponding to approximately 15 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 372.73 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-((1-(3-Chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)malononitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
