Chemical Structure

1-((2-Methylbenzyl)thio)propan-2-one CAS 40939-01-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-((2-Methylbenzyl)thio)propan-2-one is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-((2-Methylbenzyl)thio)propan-2-one (CAS 40939-01-3), molecular formula C11H14OS and molecular weight 194.29 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-((2-Methylbenzyl)thio)propan-2-one (C11H14OS) 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 its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-((2-Methylbenzyl)thio)propan-2-one 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.
