Chemical Structure

3,3',3'',4,4',4''-Hexamethyl-2,2':5',2''-terthiophene CAS 114224-82-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

3,3',3'',4,4',4''-Hexamethyl-2,2':5',2''-terthiophene (CAS 114224-82-7), molecular formula C18H20S3 and molecular weight 332.55 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system, 3,3',3'',4,4',4''-Hexamethyl-2,2':5',2''-terthiophene is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 332.55 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
