Chemical Structure

4-(1-Butyl-1H-indol-2-yl)benzoic acid CAS 88561-06-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(1-Butyl-1H-indol-2-yl)benzoic acid is closely related to a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-(1-Butyl-1H-indol-2-yl)benzoic acid (CAS 88561-06-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C19H19NO2, MW 293.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-(1-Butyl-1H-indol-2-yl)benzoic acid (C19H19NO2) is characterized by a steroid core, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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.
