Chemical Structure

4-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]butanoic acid CAS 18850-48-1 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 4-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]butanoic acid (CAS 18850-48-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H14O2S, MW 210.29 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

4-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]butanoic acid (C11H14O2S) 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfanyl]butanoic 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.
