Chemical Structure

Ethyl 2-(5-bromo-2-oxoindolin-1-yl)acetate CAS 881608-39-5 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 2-(5-bromo-2-oxoindolin-1-yl)acetate (CAS 881608-39-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H12BrNO3 and a molecular weight of 298.13 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, Ethyl 2-(5-bromo-2-oxoindolin-1-yl)acetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 manufactures Ethyl 2-(5-bromo-2-oxoindolin-1-yl)acetate 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.
