Chemical Structure

5-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene CAS 70060-12-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 152.19 g/mol gives 5-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 70060-12-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H5FS and a molecular weight of 152.19 g/mol.

5-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene (C8H5FS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

CATO manufactures 5-Fluorobenzo[b]thiophene 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.
