Chemical Structure

Methyl 1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxylate CAS 55934-10-6 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 Methyl 1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxylate.

CATO supplies Methyl 1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxylate (CAS 55934-10-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H10O3, MW 190.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 190.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
