Chemical Structure

4-(1H-Indol-4-yl)but-3-en-2-one CAS 74068-98-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(1H-Indol-4-yl)but-3-en-2-one is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(1H-Indol-4-yl)but-3-en-2-one (CAS 74068-98-7), molecular formula C12H11NO and molecular weight 185.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-(1H-Indol-4-yl)but-3-en-2-one (C12H11NO) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, 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 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 4-(1H-Indol-4-yl)but-3-en-2-one 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.
