Chemical Structure

4,5-Dibromothiophene-3-carboxylic acid CAS 101079-66-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4,5-Dibromothiophene-3-carboxylic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4,5-Dibromothiophene-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 101079-66-7), molecular formula C5H2Br2O2S and molecular weight 285.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C5H2Br2O2S, 4,5-Dibromothiophene-3-carboxylic acid contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 285.94 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4,5-Dibromothiophene-3-carboxylic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
