2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene CAS 1195-14-8 chemical structure

Description

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 supplies 2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 1195-14-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8S, MW 148.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system, 2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 148.22 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).

CATO manufactures 2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene 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.
