4-Methoxythiophene-3-carboxylic Acid CAS 71050-40-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Methoxythiophene-3-carboxylic Acid.

4-Methoxythiophene-3-carboxylic Acid (CAS 71050-40-3), molecular formula C6H6O3S and molecular weight 158.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-Methoxythiophene-3-carboxylic Acid (C6H6O3S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 4-Methoxythiophene-3-carboxylic Acid 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.
