CATO supplies Potassium tetra(thiophen-2-yl)borate (CAS 184362-33-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H12BS4K, MW 382.42 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system, Potassium tetra(thiophen-2-yl)borate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 382.42 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), Potassium tetra(thiophen-2-yl)borate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
