Chemical Structure

5,6,7-Trimethoxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 100519-41-3 chemical structure

Description

5,6,7-Trimethoxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (C12H12O5S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5,6,7-Trimethoxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 100519-41-3), molecular formula C12H12O5S and molecular weight 268.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
