Chemical Structure

5-Hydroxy-7-methyl-2H-1,3-benzoxathiol-2-one CAS 17631-00-4 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 5-Hydroxy-7-methyl-2H-1,3-benzoxathiol-2-one (C8H6O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 182.20 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).

CATO supplies 5-Hydroxy-7-methyl-2H-1,3-benzoxathiol-2-one (CAS 17631-00-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6O3S, MW 182.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
