Chemical Structure

Dimercaptosuccinic Acid CAS 2418-14-6 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 Dimercaptosuccinic Acid (CAS 2418-14-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H6O4S2, MW 182.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C4H6O4S2, Dimercaptosuccinic Acid contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, a sulfone group; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 182.22 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.
