Chemical Structure

2,4-Dihydroxy-5-isopropylbenzodithioic acid CAS 1046490-81-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,4-Dihydroxy-5-isopropylbenzodithioic acid.

CATO supplies 2,4-Dihydroxy-5-isopropylbenzodithioic acid (CAS 1046490-81-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H12O2S2, MW 228.33 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2,4-Dihydroxy-5-isopropylbenzodithioic acid (C10H12O2S2) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
