Chemical Structure

6-Mercapto-1-hexanol CAS 1633-78-9 chemical structure

Description

6-Mercapto-1-hexanol (CAS 1633-78-9), molecular formula C6H14OS and molecular weight 134.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

6-Mercapto-1-hexanol (C6H14OS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.
