Chemical Structure

2-Mercaptoacrylic acid CAS 31523-62-3 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-Mercaptoacrylic acid (C3H4O2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.

2-Mercaptoacrylic acid (CAS 31523-62-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C3H4O2S and a molecular weight of 104.13 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 2-Mercaptoacrylic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
