2,5-Bis(thiophen-2-ylthio)thiophene (CAS 4764-95-8), molecular formula C12H8S5 and molecular weight 312.52 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system, 2,5-Bis(thiophen-2-ylthio)thiophene is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 312.52 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.
CATO manufactures 2,5-Bis(thiophen-2-ylthio)thiophene 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.
