Chemical Structure

5-Methyl-4-((m-tolyloxy)methyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde CAS 869950-37-8 chemical structure

Description

5-Methyl-4-((m-tolyloxy)methyl)thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (C14H14O2S) 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 high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
