Chemical Structure

Methyl 4-(chloromethyl)thiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 34767-85-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

Methyl 4-(chloromethyl)thiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 34767-85-6), molecular formula C7H7ClO2S and molecular weight 190.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Methyl 4-(chloromethyl)thiophene-2-carboxylate (C7H7ClO2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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.

CATO manufactures Methyl 4-(chloromethyl)thiophene-2-carboxylate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
