3-Pentylthiophene CAS 102871-31-8 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 154.27 g/mol gives 3-Pentylthiophene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-Pentylthiophene (CAS 102871-31-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H14S and a molecular weight of 154.27 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, 3-Pentylthiophene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 154.27 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).

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.

CATO manufactures 3-Pentylthiophene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
