Description
5-Methoxytryptophol is a methoxy-substituted tryptophol derivative used as a biochemical research reagent and synthetic intermediate. It is registered under CAS number 712-09-4, with the empirical formula C₁₁H₁₃NO₂ and a molar mass of 191,23 g/mol. size is convenient for analytical standards, small-scale synthesis, and exploratory biological assays involving indole ethanol scaffolds. Researchers employ this compound in studies of melatonin-related metabolites, receptor-binding probes, and structure–activity relationships around the 5-methoxyindole motif. Its defined molecular identity supports reproducible formulation of stock solutions and reference materials in organic and medicinal chemistry laboratories. Supplied from manufacturer Carl ROTH as part of the biochemicals portfolio, the product integrates readily into workflows that require a compact, well-characterised tryptophol analogue. Accurate CAS and formula data on the listing aid inventory control, safety documentation, and cross-referencing with literature protocols.

Questions about 5-Methoxytryptophol, 250 mg
What is this article?
5-Methoxytryptophol, 250 mg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
