Chemical Structure

Methyl 5,6-Dimethoxybenzothiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 35212-99-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Methyl 5,6-Dimethoxybenzothiophene-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.

CATO supplies Methyl 5,6-Dimethoxybenzothiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 35212-99-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H12O4S, MW 252.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, Methyl 5,6-Dimethoxybenzothiophene-2-carboxylate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.29 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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