Chemical Structure

Phenethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate CAS 4455-09-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Phenethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Phenethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (CAS 4455-09-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C15H16O3S and a molecular weight of 276.35 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system, Phenethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 276.35 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), Phenethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate 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.
