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.
2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene 1-oxide (CAS 33945-86-7), molecular formula C9H8OS and molecular weight 164.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene 1-oxide (C9H8OS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO manufactures 2-Methylbenzo[b]thiophene 1-oxide 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.
