Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 205.21 g/mol gives 3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)indole-2-carboxylic acid, 97% distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)indole-2-carboxylic acid, 97% (CAS 77903-96-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H11NO3, MW 205.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)indole-2-carboxylic acid, 97% (C11H11NO3) contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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 3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)indole-2-carboxylic acid, 97% 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.
