Chemical Structure

4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)sulfanylbenzoic acid CAS 252973-46-9 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.

4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)sulfanylbenzoic acid (CAS 252973-46-9), molecular formula C14H12O3S and molecular weight 260.31 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)sulfanylbenzoic acid (C14H12O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
