Chemical Structure

2-Ethylhexyl 3-mercaptopropanoate CAS 50448-95-8 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-Ethylhexyl 3-mercaptopropanoate.

CATO supplies 2-Ethylhexyl 3-mercaptopropanoate (CAS 50448-95-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H22O2S, MW 218.36 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

2-Ethylhexyl 3-mercaptopropanoate (C11H22O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Ethylhexyl 3-mercaptopropanoate 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.
