Chemical Structure

2-Mercaptocyclohexanone CAS 42904-05-2 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Mercaptocyclohexanone.

2-Mercaptocyclohexanone (CAS 42904-05-2), molecular formula C6H10OS and molecular weight 130.21 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Mercaptocyclohexanone is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 130.21 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

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 2-Mercaptocyclohexanone 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.
