Chemical Structure

(6-bromobenzothiophen-2-yl)methanol CAS 374933-76-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (6-bromobenzothiophen-2-yl)methanol is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(6-bromobenzothiophen-2-yl)methanol (CAS 374933-76-3), molecular formula C9H7BrOS and molecular weight 243.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, (6-bromobenzothiophen-2-yl)methanol (C9H7BrOS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 243.12 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
