Chemical Structure

1-Mercaptopropan-2-one CAS 24653-75-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-Mercaptopropan-2-one.

1-Mercaptopropan-2-one (CAS 24653-75-6), molecular formula C3H6OS and molecular weight 90.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-Mercaptopropan-2-one is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 90.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Mercaptopropan-2-one 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.
