Chemical Structure

7-bromo-3-methyl-1-benzothiophene CAS 17514-70-4 chemical structure

Description

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 7-bromo-3-methyl-1-benzothiophene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 227.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

7-bromo-3-methyl-1-benzothiophene (CAS 17514-70-4), molecular formula C9H7BrS and molecular weight 227.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
