Chemical Structure

Potassium Ethylxanthate CAS 140-89-6 chemical structure

Description

Potassium Ethylxanthate (CAS 140-89-6), molecular formula C3H5OS2K and molecular weight 160.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Potassium Ethylxanthate (C3H5OS2K) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures Potassium Ethylxanthate 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.
