Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(6-Chloro-3-indolyl)-2-oxoacetate CAS 849630-76-8 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 2-(6-Chloro-3-indolyl)-2-oxoacetate (CAS 849630-76-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10ClNO3 and a molecular weight of 251.67 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H10ClNO3, Ethyl 2-(6-Chloro-3-indolyl)-2-oxoacetate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 251.67 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
