7-Bromo-5-nitro-1H-indole CAS 87240-07-1 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 7-Bromo-5-nitro-1H-indole.

7-Bromo-5-nitro-1H-indole (CAS 87240-07-1), molecular formula C8H5BrN2O2 and molecular weight 241.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

7-Bromo-5-nitro-1H-indole (C8H5BrN2O2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

CATO manufactures 7-Bromo-5-nitro-1H-indole under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
