Description
1(3H)-Isobenzofuranone, 3,3-bis(2-methyl-1-octyl-1H-indol-3-yl)- (CAS No. 50292-95-0) is a high-purity synthetic organic compound with the molecular formula C42H52N2O2. This indole-derived benzofuranone derivative is characterized by its unique structural configuration, featuring two 2-methyl-1-octylindole moieties symmetrically attached to a phthalide core. The compound is supplied as a fine powder or crystalline solid with consistent batch-to-batch purity (>98% by HPLC), making it ideal for advanced research applications. Its extended alkyl chains and aromatic systems contribute to notable lipophilicity, while the rigid benzofuranone scaffold offers potential for photophysical studies. Proper handling requires storage under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to maintain stability.
