Chemical Structure

5-(Ethylsulfanyl)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 101861-40-9 chemical structure

Description

5-(Ethylsulfanyl)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 101861-40-9), molecular formula C7H8O2S2 and molecular weight 188.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 5-(Ethylsulfanyl)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 188.27 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
