Chemical Structure

2-(Methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenol CAS 1243358-36-2 chemical structure

Description

2-(Methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (CAS 1243358-36-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7F3OS and a molecular weight of 208.20 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(Methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

CATO manufactures 2-(Methylthio)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
