7-Benzyloxyindole CAS 20289-27-4

7-Benzyloxyindole (CAS:20289-27-4) is an important organic intermediate.

Its main applications including:

1. 7-Benzyloxyindole is a essential protected indole intermediate for anti-inflammatory and nervous system drug synthesis.
2. 7-Benzyloxyindole is a common raw material for deprotection, coupling and molecular derivatization in fine organic synthesis.
3. 7-Benzyloxyindole is a precursor for biological fluorescent probes and high-value heterocyclic fine chemicals.

1. Seal tightly and store below 25°C in dry dark warehouse to prevent photooxidation of indole ring.
2. Avoid frequent opening of packaging to stop oxidation and discoloration of benzyloxy substituent.
3. Store separately from strong oxidants, concentrated acids and high-temperature catalytic agents.

1. Avoid inhalation of crystalline dust; wear dust mask and chemical-resistant gloves during weighing and transfer.
2. Never swallow the solid; flush contaminated eyes and skin with sufficient running water right after exposure.
3. Dispose waste residues and filtrate in line with aromatic ether hazardous waste management regulations.

1. The 7-position benzyloxy group serves as removable protecting group for multi-step synthetic routes.
2. Complete indole heterocyclic skeleton maintains stability under mild heating and common reaction environments.
3. High crystal purity reduces impurity by-products when preparing bioactive heterocyclic intermediates.
