The occurrence of Benzyl chloromethyl sulfide is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Benzyl chloromethyl sulfide (CAS 3970-13-6), molecular formula C8H9ClS and molecular weight 172.68 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Benzyl chloromethyl sulfide (C8H9ClS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, 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).
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.
CATO manufactures Benzyl chloromethyl sulfide 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.
