Chemical Structure

3-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)thiophene CAS 143469-23-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 186.58 g/mol gives 3-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)thiophene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)thiophene (CAS 143469-23-2), molecular formula C5H2ClF3S and molecular weight 186.58 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-chloro-2-(trifluoromethyl)thiophene (C5H2ClF3S) contains sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine/chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

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.
