Chemical Structure

6-Methyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)benzothiazole CAS 488722-57-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 6-Methyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)benzothiazole (CAS 488722-57-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H10N2O2S, MW 270.31 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 6-Methyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)benzothiazole is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 270.31 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.

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), 6-Methyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)benzothiazole 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.
