Chemical Structure

3,4-Dibromo-2-(bromomethyl)thiophene CAS 117829-46-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, 3,4-Dibromo-2-(bromomethyl)thiophene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 334.85 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies 3,4-Dibromo-2-(bromomethyl)thiophene (CAS 117829-46-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H3Br3S, MW 334.85 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

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.
