1-(5-Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 5102-18-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-(5-Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one.

CATO supplies 1-(5-Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 5102-18-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C17H15NO2, MW 265.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 1-(5-Hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-one (C17H15NO2) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 11.0, corresponding to approximately 11 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 265.31 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
