Chemical Structure

3-(Chloromethyl)thiophene CAS 2746-23-8 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-(Chloromethyl)thiophene.

3-(Chloromethyl)thiophene (CAS 2746-23-8), molecular formula C5H5ClS and molecular weight 132.61 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-(Chloromethyl)thiophene (C5H5ClS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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.

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), 3-(Chloromethyl)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.
