Chemical Structure

5-Bromothiophene-2-sulfonic acid CAS 73348-44-4 chemical structure

Description

5-Bromothiophene-2-sulfonic acid (CAS 73348-44-4), molecular formula C4H3BrO3S2 and molecular weight 243.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 5-Bromothiophene-2-sulfonic acid (C4H3BrO3S2) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. 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 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).

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

CATO manufactures 5-Bromothiophene-2-sulfonic acid 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.
