Chemical Structure

3-Methyl-2-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazol-3-ium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate CAS 55514-14-2 chemical structure

Description

3-Methyl-2-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazol-3-ium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (CAS 55514-14-2), molecular formula C9H10NS2C7H7O3S and molecular weight 367.50 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 3-Methyl-2-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazol-3-ium 4-methylbenzenesulfonate is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 367.50 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

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.
