Chemical Structure

2-(Thiophen-2-yl)benzofuran CAS 65246-50-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(Thiophen-2-yl)benzofuran 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.

2-(Thiophen-2-yl)benzofuran (CAS 65246-50-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8OS and a molecular weight of 200.26 g/mol.

2-(Thiophen-2-yl)benzofuran (C12H8OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.
