Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-4,5-bis(methylsulfonyl)-benzoic Acid Methyl Ester CAS 373357-96-1 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 2-Methyl-4,5-bis(methylsulfonyl)-benzoic Acid Methyl Ester (C11H14O6S2) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 306.36 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).

2-Methyl-4,5-bis(methylsulfonyl)-benzoic Acid Methyl Ester (CAS 373357-96-1), molecular formula C11H14O6S2 and molecular weight 306.36 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
