5-(Hydroxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde CAS 53821-57-1 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 5-(Hydroxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde.

5-(Hydroxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 53821-57-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H6O2S and a molecular weight of 142.18 g/mol.

5-(Hydroxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (C6H6O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(Hydroxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
