2-(2-Ethoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclopentanone CAS 61579-90-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-Ethoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclopentanone is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(2-Ethoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclopentanone (CAS 61579-90-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H21NO3, MW 299.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-(2-Ethoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclopentanone (C18H21NO3) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-Ethoxy-1H-indole-3-carbonyl)-4,4-dimethylcyclopentanone meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
