The occurrence of Calcium sulfite is closely related to a sulfone group in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Calcium sulfite (CAS 10257-55-3), molecular formula H2O3SCa and molecular weight 122.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Calcium sulfite (H2O3SCa) contains a sulfone group. It is notably hygroscopic; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.
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.
