4-Ethyl-1h-imidazole-2-thiol CAS 4708-63-8 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 4-Ethyl-1h-imidazole-2-thiol 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.

CATO supplies 4-Ethyl-1h-imidazole-2-thiol (CAS 4708-63-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H8N2S, MW 128.20 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, 4-Ethyl-1h-imidazole-2-thiol is typically white to pale yellow liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 128.20 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
