2,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)thiophene (CAS 87721-33-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H2F6S and a molecular weight of 220.14 g/mol.
Structurally, 2,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)thiophene (C6H2F6S) contains sulfur-containing functionality, fluorine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 220.14 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
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.
