5-Chloro-2-(p-tolyl)-1H-indole CAS 66866-07-7 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 5-Chloro-2-(p-tolyl)-1H-indole.

5-Chloro-2-(p-tolyl)-1H-indole (CAS 66866-07-7), molecular formula C15H12ClN and molecular weight 241.72 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Chloro-2-(p-tolyl)-1H-indole (C15H12ClN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures 5-Chloro-2-(p-tolyl)-1H-indole under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
