Chemical Structure

Benzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylic Acid CAS 5381-25-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Benzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylic Acid.

Benzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylic Acid (CAS 5381-25-9), molecular formula C9H6O2S and molecular weight 178.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C9H6O2S, Benzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylic Acid contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 178.21 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures Benzo[b]thiophene-3-carboxylic Acid 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.
