Chemical Structure

2-((3-Methylbenzyl)thio)acetaldehyde CAS 1344303-29-2 chemical structure

Description

2-((3-Methylbenzyl)thio)acetaldehyde (CAS 1344303-29-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12OS and a molecular weight of 180.27 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-((3-Methylbenzyl)thio)acetaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 180.27 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-((3-Methylbenzyl)thio)acetaldehyde 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.
