The occurrence of 2-Phenylbenzo[b]thiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-Phenylbenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 1207-95-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H10S and a molecular weight of 210.29 g/mol.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2-Phenylbenzo[b]thiophene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 210.29 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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 2-Phenylbenzo[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.
