The occurrence of Ethion is closely related to a sulfone group, a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Ethion (CAS 563-12-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H22O4P2S4 and a molecular weight of 384.48 g/mol.
Owing to a sulfone group, a phosphate ester group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Ethion is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 384.48 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.
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 manufactures Ethion 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.
