Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 6-Bromo-3-chloro-1H-indole is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 6-Bromo-3-chloro-1H-indole (CAS 57916-08-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5BrClN, MW 230.49 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
6-Bromo-3-chloro-1H-indole (C8H5BrClN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
