The occurrence of 3-Decylthiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
3-Decylthiophene (CAS 65016-55-9), molecular formula C14H24S and molecular weight 224.41 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 3-Decylthiophene (C14H24S) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
