Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-ethyl­thiopropionate CAS 18673-13-7 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 2-ethyl­thiopropionate (CAS 18673-13-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H12O2S and a molecular weight of 148.22 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Methyl 2-ethyl­thiopropionate is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 148.22 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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.
