Chemical Structure

2-[4-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl]-2-oxoacetaldehyde CAS 58950-88-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-[4-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl]-2-oxoacetaldehyde is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-[4-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl]-2-oxoacetaldehyde (CAS 58950-88-2), molecular formula C9H8O2S and molecular weight 180.22 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-[4-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl]-2-oxoacetaldehyde (C9H8O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-[4-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl]-2-oxoacetaldehyde meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
