Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 6-(chloromethyl)-1-benzothiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 6-(chloromethyl)-1-benzothiophene (CAS 56540-84-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H15ClS, MW 190.73 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
6-(chloromethyl)-1-benzothiophene (C9H15ClS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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), 6-(chloromethyl)-1-benzothiophene 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.
