Chemical Structure

3-Fluoro-5-methylthiophene-2-carbaldehyde CAS 821780-15-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 3-Fluoro-5-methylthiophene-2-carbaldehyde (CAS 821780-15-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H5FOS, MW 144.17 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Fluoro-5-methylthiophene-2-carbaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 144.17 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
