Chemical Structure

[4-(Methylsulfanyl)phenyl]methanethiol CAS 108499-20-3 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of [4-(Methylsulfanyl)phenyl]methanethiol (C8H10S2) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, 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).

CATO supplies [4-(Methylsulfanyl)phenyl]methanethiol (CAS 108499-20-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H10S2, MW 170.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
