Chemical Structure

5-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 244126-64-5 chemical structure

Description

5-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (C10H5F3O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 244126-64-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H5F3O2S and a molecular weight of 246.21 g/mol.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid 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.
