Chemical Structure

Ethyl (2-mercaptoethyl) carbonate CAS 5628-96-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 150.20 g/mol gives Ethyl (2-mercaptoethyl) carbonate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Ethyl (2-mercaptoethyl) carbonate (CAS 5628-96-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H10O3S and a molecular weight of 150.20 g/mol.

Ethyl (2-mercaptoethyl) carbonate (C5H10O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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.
