Chemical Structure

4-Chloro-2-methylthiophene CAS 91375-70-1 chemical structure

Description

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

CATO supplies 4-Chloro-2-methylthiophene (CAS 91375-70-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H5ClS, MW 132.61 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, 4-Chloro-2-methylthiophene is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 132.61 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
