Chemical Structure

4-Methylbenzothioic S-acid CAS 50684-43-0 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 4-Methylbenzothioic S-acid.

4-Methylbenzothioic S-acid (CAS 50684-43-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8OS and a molecular weight of 152.21 g/mol.

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-Methylbenzothioic S-acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 152.21 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).

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), 4-Methylbenzothioic S-acid 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.
