CATO supplies 4-(Methylthio)benzene-1-sulfonyl chloride, 97% (CAS 1129-25-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H7ClO2S2, MW 222.71 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-(Methylthio)benzene-1-sulfonyl chloride, 97% is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 222.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
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.
