2-(5-Bromo-2-methylbenzoyl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophene (CAS 1132832-75-7), molecular formula C18H12BrFOS and molecular weight 375.25 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 2-(5-Bromo-2-methylbenzoyl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)thiophene (C18H12BrFOS) contains a steroid core, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 12.0, corresponding to approximately 12 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 375.25 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
