The occurrence of 3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene-2-carbonyl chloride is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, 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.
3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene-2-carbonyl chloride (CAS 41280-76-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H7ClOS and a molecular weight of 210.68 g/mol.
3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene-2-carbonyl chloride (C10H7ClOS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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.
CATO manufactures 3-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene-2-carbonyl chloride 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.
