CATO supplies [2,2'-Bithiophene]-5-carbonitrile (CAS 16278-99-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H5NS2, MW 191.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, [2,2'-Bithiophene]-5-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 191.27 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).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
