Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-formylthiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 67808-64-4 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C7H6O3S, Methyl 5-formylthiophene-2-carboxylate contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 170.19 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies Methyl 5-formylthiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 67808-64-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6O3S, MW 170.19 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
