3-Cyanoindole CAS 5457-28-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 3-Cyanoindole 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.

CATO supplies 3-Cyanoindole (CAS 5457-28-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H6N2, MW 142.16 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, 3-Cyanoindole is typically pale yellow to yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 142.16 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.
