Chemical Structure

1,2-Benzenedithiol CAS 17534-15-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1,2-Benzenedithiol is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1,2-Benzenedithiol (CAS 17534-15-5), molecular formula C6H6S2 and molecular weight 142.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1,2-Benzenedithiol (C6H6S2) contains sulfur-containing functionality, an aromatic ring system. Its physicochemical properties are representative of its class; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), 1,2-Benzenedithiol 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.
