Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-5-nitrothiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 864075-31-0 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.

4-Bromo-5-nitrothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 864075-31-0), molecular formula C5H2BrNO4S and molecular weight 252.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 4-Bromo-5-nitrothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (C5H2BrNO4S) is characterized by a carbohydrate-derived structure, an amide group, a sulfone group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Bromo-5-nitrothiophene-2-carboxylic 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.
