Chemical Structure

6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene CAS 205055-10-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 205055-10-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5FS, MW 152.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene (C8H5FS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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 6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene 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.
