Chemical Structure

2-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)acetonitrile CAS 959236-14-7 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)acetonitrile 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.

2-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 959236-14-7), molecular formula C10H7FN2 and molecular weight 174.17 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2-(7-Fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)acetonitrile (C10H7FN2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine substitution. 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 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.
