Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-chloro-3-formyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate CAS 43142-76-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 5-chloro-3-formyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 5-chloro-3-formyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (CAS 43142-76-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10ClNO3 and a molecular weight of 251.67 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Ethyl 5-chloro-3-formyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (C12H10ClNO3) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution. 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.

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), Ethyl 5-chloro-3-formyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate 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.
