Chemical Structure

2-(Methylthio)-1-phenylpropan-1-one CAS 14236-72-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-(Methylthio)-1-phenylpropan-1-one (C10H12OS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies 2-(Methylthio)-1-phenylpropan-1-one (CAS 14236-72-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H12OS, MW 180.27 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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-(Methylthio)-1-phenylpropan-1-one 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.
