4-Chloro-2-methylphenyl isothiocyanate (CAS 23165-53-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6ClNS and a molecular weight of 183.66 g/mol.
The molecular framework of 4-Chloro-2-methylphenyl isothiocyanate (C8H6ClNS) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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-Chloro-2-methylphenyl isothiocyanate 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.
