Chemical Structure

2-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide CAS 134996-50-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide.

CATO supplies 2-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide (CAS 134996-50-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8O3S, MW 196.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C9H8O3S, 2-(Hydroxymethyl)benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxide contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 196.22 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
