Chemical Structure

7-chloro-1H-indole-4-carboxylic acid CAS 588688-45-3 chemical structure

Description

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 7-chloro-1H-indole-4-carboxylic acid is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 203.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

7-chloro-1H-indole-4-carboxylic acid (CAS 588688-45-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H14ClNO2 and a molecular weight of 203.67 g/mol.

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.
