Chemical Structure

Sodium 2-methyl-5-nitrobenzenesulfonate CAS 5258-64-0 chemical structure

Description

Sodium 2-methyl-5-nitrobenzenesulfonate (CAS 5258-64-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6NO5SNa and a molecular weight of 239.18 g/mol.

Structurally, Sodium 2-methyl-5-nitrobenzenesulfonate (C7H6NO5SNa) contains an amide group, a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.5, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 239.18 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
