Chemical Structure

5-(4-Tert-butylphenyl)-4-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 861432-72-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 5-(4-Tert-butylphenyl)-4-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 861432-72-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H18O2S, MW 274.38 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

5-(4-Tert-butylphenyl)-4-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid (C16H18O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
