Chemical Structure

4-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)butan-1-ol CAS 40547-45-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)butan-1-ol is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)butan-1-ol (CAS 40547-45-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H17NO and a molecular weight of 203.28 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-(2-Methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)butan-1-ol (C13H17NO) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
