Chemical Structure

1-(3-Bromo-5-ethylthiophen-2-yl)ethan-1-one CAS 99768-18-0 chemical structure

Description

1-(3-Bromo-5-ethylthiophen-2-yl)ethan-1-one (CAS 99768-18-0), molecular formula C8H9BrOS and molecular weight 233.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 1-(3-Bromo-5-ethylthiophen-2-yl)ethan-1-one (C8H9BrOS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 233.13 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
