Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxy-2-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)succinic acid CAS 119222-76-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Hydroxy-2-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)succinic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Hydroxy-2-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)succinic acid (CAS 119222-76-3), molecular formula C7H12O5S and molecular weight 208.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Hydroxy-2-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)succinic acid (C7H12O5S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Hydroxy-2-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)succinic acid meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
