Chemical Structure

1-(5-Bromothiophen-2-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanone CAS 34773-51-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(5-Bromothiophen-2-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanone is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-(5-Bromothiophen-2-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanone (CAS 34773-51-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H2BrF3OS and a molecular weight of 259.04 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(5-Bromothiophen-2-yl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 259.04 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
