Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 242.40 g/mol gives Dixanthogen distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Dixanthogen (CAS 502-55-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H10O2S4, MW 242.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Dixanthogen (C6H10O2S4) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.
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.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
