The occurrence of 2-(3-Methylphenyl)ethanethioamide is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-(3-Methylphenyl)ethanethioamide (CAS 6487-91-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H11NS and a molecular weight of 165.26 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, 2-(3-Methylphenyl)ethanethioamide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 165.26 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.
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.
