Chemical Structure

Isatin CAS 91-56-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Isatin under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

CATO supplies Isatin (CAS 91-56-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5NO2, MW 147.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C8H5NO2, Isatin contains an amino-acid-derived structure, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 147.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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