Chemical Structure

1-Acetylindole CAS 576-15-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 159.18 g/mol gives 1-Acetylindole distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1-Acetylindole (CAS 576-15-8), molecular formula C10H9NO and molecular weight 159.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-Acetylindole (C10H9NO) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
