Chemical Structure

4-Mercapto-3-methylbutan-2-ol CAS 33959-27-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Mercapto-3-methylbutan-2-ol 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.

4-Mercapto-3-methylbutan-2-ol (CAS 33959-27-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H12OS and a molecular weight of 120.21 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 4-Mercapto-3-methylbutan-2-ol is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 120.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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