Chemical Structure
Description
CATO supplies 2-Methyl-3-(((methylthio)methyl)thio)furan (CAS 61720-53-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H10OS2, MW 174.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 2-Methyl-3-(((methylthio)methyl)thio)furan is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 174.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
