5-n-Octyl-2,2'-bithiophene CAS 93164-73-9

Description

The occurrence of 5-n-Octyl-2,2'-bithiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 5-n-Octyl-2,2'-bithiophene (CAS 93164-73-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H22S2, MW 278.48 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

5-n-Octyl-2,2'-bithiophene (C16H22S2) contains sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system. 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.
