Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 182.24 g/mol gives 1-(3-Methylthiophen-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
1-(3-Methylthiophen-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione (CAS 1344204-72-3), molecular formula C9H10O2S and molecular weight 182.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 1-(3-Methylthiophen-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione (C9H10O2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
