Chemical Structure

2-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]benzoic acid CAS 176983-05-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]benzoic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]benzoic acid (CAS 176983-05-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H12O2S and a molecular weight of 196.27 g/mol.

2-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]benzoic acid (C10H12O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-[(ethylsulfanyl)methyl]benzoic acid 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.
