Chemical Structure

2,4-Dihydroxybenzodithioic acid CAS 32361-58-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2,4-Dihydroxybenzodithioic 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.

2,4-Dihydroxybenzodithioic acid (CAS 32361-58-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6O2S2 and a molecular weight of 186.25 g/mol.

2,4-Dihydroxybenzodithioic acid (C7H6O2S2) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).

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