Chemical Structure

3-(Chloromethyl)-2,5-dimethylthiophene CAS 766-58-5 chemical structure

Description

3-(Chloromethyl)-2,5-dimethylthiophene (C7H9ClS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

3-(Chloromethyl)-2,5-dimethylthiophene (CAS 766-58-5), molecular formula C7H9ClS and molecular weight 160.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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-(Chloromethyl)-2,5-dimethylthiophene 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.
