Chemical Structure

Ethyl L-camphorsulfonate CAS 1242184-36-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Ethyl L-camphorsulfonate 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.

Ethyl L-camphorsulfonate (CAS 1242184-36-6), molecular formula C12H20O4S and molecular weight 260.35 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Ethyl L-camphorsulfonate (C12H20O4S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Ethyl L-camphorsulfonate 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.
