Chemical Structure

6-Methoxy-2-methylbenzothiazole CAS 2941-72-2 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 6-Methoxy-2-methylbenzothiazole (CAS 2941-72-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H9NOS, MW 179.24 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Methoxy-2-methylbenzothiazole is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 179.24 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Methoxy-2-methylbenzothiazole 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.
