Chemical Structure

3-[5-(benzyloxy)-1h-indol-1-yl]propanoic acid CAS 445492-18-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-[5-(benzyloxy)-1h-indol-1-yl]propanoic acid is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-[5-(benzyloxy)-1h-indol-1-yl]propanoic acid (CAS 445492-18-2), molecular formula C18H17NO3 and molecular weight 295.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-[5-(benzyloxy)-1h-indol-1-yl]propanoic acid (C18H17NO3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures 3-[5-(benzyloxy)-1h-indol-1-yl]propanoic acid 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.
