Chemical Structure

4-Phenyl-4-thioxobutan-2-one CAS 53392-49-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Phenyl-4-thioxobutan-2-one is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Phenyl-4-thioxobutan-2-one (CAS 53392-49-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H10O2S and a molecular weight of 194.25 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 4-Phenyl-4-thioxobutan-2-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 194.25 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
