Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-(2-chloroacetamido)-5-fluoro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate CAS 843631-16-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 3-(2-chloroacetamido)-5-fluoro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Methyl 3-(2-chloroacetamido)-5-fluoro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (CAS 843631-16-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10ClFN2O3, MW 284.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine substitution, Methyl 3-(2-chloroacetamido)-5-fluoro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 284.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
