Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-hexylthiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 74965-79-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Methyl 5-hexylthiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 74965-79-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H18O2S, MW 226.34 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Methyl 5-hexylthiophene-2-carboxylate (C12H18O2S) 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 its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

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 Methyl 5-hexylthiophene-2-carboxylate 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.
