Chemical Structure

5-Methoxythiophene-3-carbaldehyde CAS 78395-10-5 chemical structure

Description

5-Methoxythiophene-3-carbaldehyde (CAS 78395-10-5), molecular formula C6H6O2S and molecular weight 142.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 5-Methoxythiophene-3-carbaldehyde (C6H6O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 142.18 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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

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.
