Chemical Structure

2-isothiocyanato-2-methylbutane CAS 597-97-7 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-isothiocyanato-2-methylbutane.

2-isothiocyanato-2-methylbutane (CAS 597-97-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H11NS and a molecular weight of 129.22 g/mol.

Structurally, 2-isothiocyanato-2-methylbutane (C6H11NS) contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 129.22 g/mol, it falls into the low-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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-isothiocyanato-2-methylbutane 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.
