Chemical Structure

Isobutyl Methanesulfonate CAS 16156-53-9 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Isobutyl Methanesulfonate is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies Isobutyl Methanesulfonate (CAS 16156-53-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H12O3S, MW 152.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Isobutyl Methanesulfonate (C5H12O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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), Isobutyl Methanesulfonate 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.
