Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 295.18 g/mol gives Naphtho[2,1-b]thiophene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Naphtho[2,1-b]thiophene (CAS 233-02-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H15N2OBr, MW 295.18 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of Naphtho[2,1-b]thiophene (C13H15N2OBr) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), Naphtho[2,1-b]thiophene 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.
