Chemical Structure

Dihexylsulfane CAS 6294-31-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Dihexylsulfane is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Dihexylsulfane (CAS 6294-31-1), molecular formula C12H26S and molecular weight 202.40 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Dihexylsulfane (C12H26S) contains sulfur-containing functionality. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

CATO manufactures Dihexylsulfane under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
