Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-5-(tert-butyl)-2-methylthiophene CAS 83174-17-8 chemical structure

Description

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, 3-Bromo-5-(tert-butyl)-2-methylthiophene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 233.17 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).

3-Bromo-5-(tert-butyl)-2-methylthiophene (CAS 83174-17-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H13BrS and a molecular weight of 233.17 g/mol.

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), 3-Bromo-5-(tert-butyl)-2-methylthiophene 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.
