Chemical Structure

(4-Bromobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol CAS 93103-83-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (4-Bromobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(4-Bromobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol (CAS 93103-83-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H7BrOS and a molecular weight of 243.12 g/mol.

The molecular framework of (4-Bromobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol (C9H7BrOS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (4-Bromobenzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)methanol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
