Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-4-oxo-4-thiophen-2-yl-butyric acid CAS 53515-21-2 chemical structure

Description

3-Bromo-4-oxo-4-thiophen-2-yl-butyric acid (CAS 53515-21-2), molecular formula C8H7BrO3S and molecular weight 263.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 3-Bromo-4-oxo-4-thiophen-2-yl-butyric acid (C8H7BrO3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 263.11 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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