Chemical Structure

Isopropyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate CAS 52873-84-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies Isopropyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate (CAS 52873-84-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H18O3S, MW 242.33 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Isopropyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate (C12H18O3S) contains 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 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 242.33 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Isopropyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate 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.
