Chemical Structure

2-(tert-Butoxy)-5-(methylthio)phenol CAS 1243380-78-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 212.31 g/mol gives 2-(tert-Butoxy)-5-(methylthio)phenol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-(tert-Butoxy)-5-(methylthio)phenol (CAS 1243380-78-0), molecular formula C11H16O2S and molecular weight 212.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-(tert-Butoxy)-5-(methylthio)phenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 212.31 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).

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-(tert-Butoxy)-5-(methylthio)phenol 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.
