Chemical Structure

2-(2-Mercaptoethyl)phenol CAS 13407-20-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(2-Mercaptoethyl)phenol is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-(2-Mercaptoethyl)phenol (CAS 13407-20-0), molecular formula C8H10OS and molecular weight 154.23 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-(2-Mercaptoethyl)phenol (C8H10OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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-(2-Mercaptoethyl)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.
