Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-2-(phenylthio)propanoic acid CAS 5219-64-7 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-Methyl-2-(phenylthio)propanoic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 196.27 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.

2-Methyl-2-(phenylthio)propanoic acid (CAS 5219-64-7), molecular formula C10H12O2S and molecular weight 196.27 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
