Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-4-(chloromethyl)thiophene CAS 70260-08-1 chemical structure

Description

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine/bromine substitution, 3-Bromo-4-(chloromethyl)thiophene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 211.51 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

CATO supplies 3-Bromo-4-(chloromethyl)thiophene (CAS 70260-08-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H4BrClS, MW 211.51 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Bromo-4-(chloromethyl)thiophene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
