Chemical Structure

Di-tert-butyl 1H-indole-1,5-dicarboxylate CAS 866587-85-1 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.

CATO supplies Di-tert-butyl 1H-indole-1,5-dicarboxylate (CAS 866587-85-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H23NO4, MW 317.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a flavonoid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Di-tert-butyl 1H-indole-1,5-dicarboxylate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 317.38 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
