Chemical Structure

5-Bromothiophene-2-carbonyl Chloride CAS 31555-60-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-Bromothiophene-2-carbonyl Chloride is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 5-Bromothiophene-2-carbonyl Chloride (CAS 31555-60-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H2BrClOS, MW 225.49 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 5-Bromothiophene-2-carbonyl Chloride (C5H2BrClOS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 225.49 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
