The occurrence of 3-(6-Bromohexyl)thiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
3-(6-Bromohexyl)thiophene (CAS 125878-91-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H15BrS and a molecular weight of 247.20 g/mol.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, 3-(6-Bromohexyl)thiophene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 247.20 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-(6-Bromohexyl)thiophene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
