(3-Fluorothiophen-2-yl)methanol (CAS 614729-70-3), molecular formula C5H5FOS and molecular weight 132.16 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
(3-Fluorothiophen-2-yl)methanol (C5H5FOS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), (3-Fluorothiophen-2-yl)methanol 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.
