The occurrence of 4,5-Dihydrocyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-one is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
4,5-Dihydrocyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-one (CAS 5650-52-2), molecular formula C7H6OS and molecular weight 138.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Structurally, 4,5-Dihydrocyclopenta[b]thiophen-6-one (C7H6OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 138.19 g/mol, it falls into the low-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).
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
