Chemical Structure

6-(tert-Butyldisulfanyl)hexanoic acid CAS 159552-21-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 6-(tert-Butyldisulfanyl)hexanoic acid (CAS 159552-21-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C10H20O2S2, MW 236.39 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-(tert-Butyldisulfanyl)hexanoic acid is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.39 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures 6-(tert-Butyldisulfanyl)hexanoic acid 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.
