Description

Structurally, Ethyl 4,6-bis((dimethylamino)methyl)-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylate (C18H27N3O3) contains a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 333.43 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

Ethyl 4,6-bis((dimethylamino)methyl)-5-hydroxy-2-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylate (CAS 88461-89-6), molecular formula C18H27N3O3 and molecular weight 333.43 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
