Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-3-chlorothiophene CAS 77893-68-6 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromo-3-chlorothiophene (CAS 77893-68-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H2BrClS and a molecular weight of 197.48 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-Bromo-3-chlorothiophene (C4H2BrClS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine/bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 197.48 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-3-chlorothiophene 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.
