Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(2-bromo-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)acetate CAS 786704-07-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

Ethyl 2-(2-bromo-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)acetate (CAS 786704-07-2), molecular formula C13H14BrNO2 and molecular weight 296.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Ethyl 2-(2-bromo-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)acetate (C13H14BrNO2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 2-(2-bromo-1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)acetate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
