Chemical Structure

Tert-butyl 5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate CAS 956502-03-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 198.28 g/mol gives Tert-butyl 5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies Tert-butyl 5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate (CAS 956502-03-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H14O2S, MW 198.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of Tert-butyl 5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate (C10H14O2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Tert-butyl 5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate 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.
