Chemical Structure

4-(methoxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde CAS 54796-48-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(methoxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(methoxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 54796-48-4), molecular formula C7H8O2S and molecular weight 156.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-(methoxymethyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (C7H8O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 156.20 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.
