Chemical Structure

Ethyl 7-fluoro-3-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate CAS 866211-11-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl 7-fluoro-3-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate 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.

Ethyl 7-fluoro-3-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate (CAS 866211-11-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12FNO2 and a molecular weight of 221.23 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, Ethyl 7-fluoro-3-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 221.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
