Chemical Structure

1-(4-Nitro-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 4769-95-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 1-(4-Nitro-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one 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.

1-(4-Nitro-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 4769-95-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H8N2O3 and a molecular weight of 204.18 g/mol.

Owing to an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-(4-Nitro-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 204.18 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
