Chemical Structure

Ethyl 3-(butylthio)-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[c]thiophene-1-carboxylate CAS 172516-33-5 chemical structure

Description

Ethyl 3-(butylthio)-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[c]thiophene-1-carboxylate (CAS 172516-33-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H20O3S2 and a molecular weight of 312.45 g/mol.

Structurally, Ethyl 3-(butylthio)-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[c]thiophene-1-carboxylate (C15H20O3S2) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 312.45 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.
