Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4,4'-Dibromo-2,2'-bithiophene.
4,4'-Dibromo-2,2'-bithiophene (CAS 51285-60-0), molecular formula C8H4Br2S2 and molecular weight 324.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 4,4'-Dibromo-2,2'-bithiophene (C8H4Br2S2) contains sulfur-containing functionality, 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 324.06 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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.
