Chemical Structure

1-(3-Fluorobenzyl)-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile CAS 496960-38-4 chemical structure

Description

1-(3-Fluorobenzyl)-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (CAS 496960-38-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H11FN2 and a molecular weight of 250.27 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-(3-Fluorobenzyl)-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile (C16H11FN2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 1-(3-Fluorobenzyl)-1H-indole-3-carbonitrile 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.
