Chemical Structure

2-(5-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)acetonitrile CAS 23799-60-2 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(5-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)acetonitrile (C10H6ClNS) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine 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. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

2-(5-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)acetonitrile (CAS 23799-60-2), molecular formula C10H6ClNS and molecular weight 207.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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), 2-(5-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)acetonitrile 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.
