Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-1-phenylthiourea CAS 2724-69-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Methyl-1-phenylthiourea 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.

3-Methyl-1-phenylthiourea (CAS 2724-69-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H10N2S and a molecular weight of 166.24 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, 3-Methyl-1-phenylthiourea is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 166.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

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.
