Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-1-benzothiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 7312-10-9 chemical structure

Description

5-Bromo-1-benzothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (C9H5BrO2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5-Bromo-1-benzothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 7312-10-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H5BrO2S and a molecular weight of 257.10 g/mol.

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.
