Chemical Structure

[1,1'-Bithieno[3,4-c]thiophene]-4,4',6,6'-tetraone CAS 521981-24-8 chemical structure

Description

[1,1'-Bithieno[3,4-c]thiophene]-4,4',6,6'-tetraone (CAS 521981-24-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H2O4S4 and a molecular weight of 338.40 g/mol.

[1,1'-Bithieno[3,4-c]thiophene]-4,4',6,6'-tetraone (C12H2O4S4) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

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

CATO manufactures [1,1'-Bithieno[3,4-c]thiophene]-4,4',6,6'-tetraone 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.
