Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-Fluoroindole-3-carboxylate CAS 773136-86-0 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 5-Fluoroindole-3-carboxylate (C11H10FNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

Ethyl 5-Fluoroindole-3-carboxylate (CAS 773136-86-0), molecular formula C11H10FNO2 and molecular weight 207.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
