Chemical Structure

(6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol CAS 212078-70-1 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures (6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol 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.

(6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol (CAS 212078-70-1), molecular formula C9H7FOS and molecular weight 182.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (6-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.21 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).

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