Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-2-iodobenzo[b]thiophene CAS 140898-76-6 chemical structure

Description

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Bromo-2-iodobenzo[b]thiophene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 338.99 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).

3-Bromo-2-iodobenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 140898-76-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H4BrIS and a molecular weight of 338.99 g/mol.

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-Bromo-2-iodobenzo[b]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.
