Methyl 2-chloro-4-methyl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrothiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 128775-88-2), molecular formula C7H7ClO3S and molecular weight 206.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Methyl 2-chloro-4-methyl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrothiophene-2-carboxylate (C7H7ClO3S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
