Chemical Structure

Dimethyl 2,5-dihydrothiophene-3,4-dicarboxylate CAS 20946-32-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Dimethyl 2,5-dihydrothiophene-3,4-dicarboxylate (CAS 20946-32-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10O4S, MW 202.23 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Dimethyl 2,5-dihydrothiophene-3,4-dicarboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 202.23 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Dimethyl 2,5-dihydrothiophene-3,4-dicarboxylate 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.
