Chemical Structure
Description
Methyl 3-(1H-indol-1-yl)propanoate (CAS 76916-49-9), molecular formula C12H13NO2 and molecular weight 203.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 3-(1H-indol-1-yl)propanoate (C12H13NO2) is characterized by an amino-acid-derived structure, 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures Methyl 3-(1H-indol-1-yl)propanoate 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.
