Chemical Structure

Benzofuran-2-thiol CAS 66355-56-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures Benzofuran-2-thiol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

Benzofuran-2-thiol (CAS 66355-56-4), molecular formula C8H6OS and molecular weight 150.20 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, Benzofuran-2-thiol (C8H6OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 150.20 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.
