Chemical Structure

1-Benzyl-4-bromo-1H-indole CAS 481630-48-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 286.17 g/mol gives 1-Benzyl-4-bromo-1H-indole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-Benzyl-4-bromo-1H-indole (CAS 481630-48-2), molecular formula C15H12BrN and molecular weight 286.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-Benzyl-4-bromo-1H-indole (C15H12BrN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine 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 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Benzyl-4-bromo-1H-indole 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.
