Chemical Structure

2-Ethyl-6-(methylthio)phenol CAS 1243387-84-9 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Ethyl-6-(methylthio)phenol (CAS 1243387-84-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H12OS, MW 168.26 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Ethyl-6-(methylthio)phenol (C9H12OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 168.26 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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-Ethyl-6-(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.
