Chemical Structure

2,4-Dichloro-5-(methylsulfanyl)benzoic acid CAS 51521-99-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

2,4-Dichloro-5-(methylsulfanyl)benzoic acid (CAS 51521-99-4), molecular formula C8H6Cl2O2S and molecular weight 237.10 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 2,4-Dichloro-5-(methylsulfanyl)benzoic acid (C8H6Cl2O2S) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

CATO manufactures 2,4-Dichloro-5-(methylsulfanyl)benzoic acid 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.
