Chemical Structure

3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1H-indole CAS 54312-06-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1H-indole is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1H-indole (CAS 54312-06-0), molecular formula C16H11F4N and molecular weight 293.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution, 3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1H-indole is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 293.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 3-(2-Fluorophenyl)-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-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.
