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.
5-n-Octylthiophene-2-boronic acid pinacol ester (CAS 925424-90-4), molecular formula C18H31BO2S and molecular weight 322.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 5-n-Octylthiophene-2-boronic acid pinacol ester (C18H31BO2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
