Chemical Structure

2-(Methylthio)thiophene-4-carboxaldehyde CAS 88511-86-8 chemical structure

Description

2-(Methylthio)thiophene-4-carboxaldehyde (CAS 88511-86-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H6OS2 and a molecular weight of 158.24 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C6H6OS2, 2-(Methylthio)thiophene-4-carboxaldehyde contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 158.24 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
