Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-1-(m-tolylthio)butan-2-one CAS 1483521-25-0 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Methyl-1-(m-tolylthio)butan-2-one.

3-Methyl-1-(m-tolylthio)butan-2-one (CAS 1483521-25-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H16OS and a molecular weight of 208.32 g/mol.

3-Methyl-1-(m-tolylthio)butan-2-one (C12H16OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

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.
