Chemical Structure

3-(3-Formyl-1H-indol-5-yl)benzonitrile CAS 893733-93-2 chemical structure

Description

3-(3-Formyl-1H-indol-5-yl)benzonitrile (CAS 893733-93-2), molecular formula C16H10N2O and molecular weight 246.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 3-(3-Formyl-1H-indol-5-yl)benzonitrile (C16H10N2O) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 13.0, corresponding to approximately 13 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 246.26 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(3-Formyl-1H-indol-5-yl)benzonitrile meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
