Chemical Structure

4-Methylbenzyl thiocyanate CAS 18991-39-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Methylbenzyl thiocyanate is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Methylbenzyl thiocyanate (CAS 18991-39-4), molecular formula C9H9NS and molecular weight 163.24 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C9H9NS, 4-Methylbenzyl thiocyanate contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 163.24 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Methylbenzyl thiocyanate 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.
