Chemical Structure

2-Hydroxyethanesulfinic acid CAS 60601-05-0 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-Hydroxyethanesulfinic acid.

2-Hydroxyethanesulfinic acid (CAS 60601-05-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H6O3S and a molecular weight of 110.13 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, an ether linkage, 2-Hydroxyethanesulfinic acid is typically white to off-white liquid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 110.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Hydroxyethanesulfinic acid 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.
