Chemical Structure

2-(Bromomethyl)-3-methylbenzo[b]thiophene CAS 895550-03-5 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 241.15 g/mol gives 2-(Bromomethyl)-3-methylbenzo[b]thiophene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(Bromomethyl)-3-methylbenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 895550-03-5), molecular formula C10H9BrS and molecular weight 241.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(Bromomethyl)-3-methylbenzo[b]thiophene (C10H9BrS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.

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.
