Chemical Structure

4-bromo-6-methyl-1H-indole CAS 885520-48-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-bromo-6-methyl-1H-indole is closely related to a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-bromo-6-methyl-1H-indole (CAS 885520-48-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H16BrN and a molecular weight of 218.13 g/mol.

4-bromo-6-methyl-1H-indole (C9H16BrN) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
