Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-chloro-4-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 175137-11-8 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, Methyl 3-chloro-4-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate (C7H7ClO2S) 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 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 190.65 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).
