(4-Sulfophenoxy)acetic acid CAS 54736-68-4 chemical structure

Description

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 (4-Sulfophenoxy)acetic acid (CAS 54736-68-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H8O6S, MW 232.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

(4-Sulfophenoxy)acetic acid (C8H8O6S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures (4-Sulfophenoxy)acetic acid 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.
