Chemical Structure

2-(3-Bromothiophen-2-yl)acetonitrile CAS 209796-27-0 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-(3-Bromothiophen-2-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 209796-27-0), molecular formula C6H4BrNS and molecular weight 202.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H4BrNS, 2-(3-Bromothiophen-2-yl)acetonitrile contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 202.07 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
