4-Acetoxyindole (CAS 5585-96-6) is a high-purity (98%) pharmaceutical intermediate synthesized via acetylation of indoxyl. Its molecular formula is C10H9NO2. This compound serves as a critical building block in the industrial production of complex heterocyclic drugs.
Store under inert atmosphere at temperatures below -20°C to prevent hydrolysis. Personnel must wear appropriate PPE including respirators and chemical-resistant gloves due to potential skin irritation and toxicity upon ingestion.
