Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Farnesylthioacetic Acid (FTA) is closely related to a steroid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Farnesylthioacetic Acid (FTA) (CAS 135784-48-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C17H28O2S and a molecular weight of 296.47 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C17H28O2S, Farnesylthioacetic Acid (FTA) contains a steroid core, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 296.47 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).
