Chemical Structure

6-(Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-1H-indole CAS 885273-41-6 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 6-(Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-1H-indole (C16H11NS) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 249.33 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

6-(Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-1H-indole (CAS 885273-41-6), molecular formula C16H11NS and molecular weight 249.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

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.
