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.
CATO supplies 3-Chloro-2-methylbenzene-1-thiol (CAS 53249-76-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H7ClS, MW 158.65 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 3-Chloro-2-methylbenzene-1-thiol (C7H7ClS) is characterized by sulfur-containing functionality, 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Chloro-2-methylbenzene-1-thiol 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.
