Chemical Structure

6-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 850073-72-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 6-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 6-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 850073-72-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H8O4S, MW 236.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 6-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (C11H8O4S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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 manufactures 6-(Methoxycarbonyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
