Chemical Structure

5-Methylthiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride CAS 55854-45-0 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-Methylthiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride.

CATO supplies 5-Methylthiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride (CAS 55854-45-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H5ClO2S2, MW 196.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, 5-Methylthiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 196.67 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 5-Methylthiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride 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.
