Chemical Structure

7-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophene CAS 90407-14-0 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 7-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophene (C8H5ClS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 168.64 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.

CATO supplies 7-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophene (CAS 90407-14-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5ClS, MW 168.64 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
