Chemical Structure

Ethyl 5-chloro-3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 33851-24-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl 5-chloro-3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Ethyl 5-chloro-3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 33851-24-0), molecular formula C11H9ClO3S and molecular weight 256.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Ethyl 5-chloro-3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate (C11H9ClO3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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).

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), Ethyl 5-chloro-3-hydroxybenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylate 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.
