Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-chlorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 13771-67-0 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.

CATO supplies Ethyl 5-chlorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 13771-67-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H9ClO2S, MW 240.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Ethyl 5-chlorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate (C11H9ClO2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 7.0, corresponding to approximately 7 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 240.71 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.
