Chemical Structure

(E)-3-Methyl-4-((methylthio)methylene)isoxazol-5(4H)-one CAS 61861-35-6 chemical structure

Description

(E)-3-Methyl-4-((methylthio)methylene)isoxazol-5(4H)-one (C6H7NO2S) contains an amide group, 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).

(E)-3-Methyl-4-((methylthio)methylene)isoxazol-5(4H)-one (CAS 61861-35-6), molecular formula C6H7NO2S and molecular weight 157.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

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.
