Chemical Structure

1,2-Bis(4-(methylthio)phenyl)ethane-1,2-dione CAS 53458-17-6 chemical structure

Description

1,2-Bis(4-(methylthio)phenyl)ethane-1,2-dione (CAS 53458-17-6), molecular formula C16H14O2S2 and molecular weight 302.41 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1,2-Bis(4-(methylthio)phenyl)ethane-1,2-dione (C16H14O2S2) is characterized by a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

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

CATO manufactures 1,2-Bis(4-(methylthio)phenyl)ethane-1,2-dione under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
