Chemical Structure

4,5-Dichloro-3-methoxythiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 120715-49-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

4,5-Dichloro-3-methoxythiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 120715-49-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H4Cl2O3S and a molecular weight of 227.07 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4,5-Dichloro-3-methoxythiophene-2-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 227.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

CATO manufactures 4,5-Dichloro-3-methoxythiophene-2-carboxylic acid 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.
