Chemical Structure

Thiophene-2,5-dicarbonitrile CAS 18853-40-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Thiophene-2,5-dicarbonitrile.

Thiophene-2,5-dicarbonitrile (CAS 18853-40-2), molecular formula C6H2N2S and molecular weight 134.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system, Thiophene-2,5-dicarbonitrile is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 134.16 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.

CATO manufactures Thiophene-2,5-dicarbonitrile under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
