Methyl 3-chlorosulfonylthiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 59337-92-7 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 Methyl 3-chlorosulfonylthiophene-2-carboxylate.

Methyl 3-chlorosulfonylthiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 59337-92-7), molecular formula C6H5ClO4S2 and molecular weight 240.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl 3-chlorosulfonylthiophene-2-carboxylate (C6H5ClO4S2) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, 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).

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.
