Chemical Structure

5-(5-Chloro-2-thienyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid CAS 845781-52-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 5-(5-Chloro-2-thienyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid (CAS 845781-52-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H11ClO3S, MW 246.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-(5-Chloro-2-thienyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 246.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-(5-Chloro-2-thienyl)-3-methyl-5-oxovaleric acid 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.
