Chemical Structure

4-Amino-3-mercaptobenzoic acid hydrochloride CAS 1571-66-0 chemical structure

Description

4-Amino-3-mercaptobenzoic acid hydrochloride (CAS 1571-66-0), molecular formula C7H7NO2SHCl and molecular weight 205.66 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Amino-3-mercaptobenzoic acid hydrochloride (C7H7NO2SHCl) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 205.66 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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), 4-Amino-3-mercaptobenzoic acid hydrochloride 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.
