Chemical Structure

2-Methyl-5-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazole CAS 68386-29-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Methyl-5-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazole 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-Methyl-5-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazole (CAS 68386-29-8), molecular formula C9H9NS2 and molecular weight 195.30 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C9H9NS2, 2-Methyl-5-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazole contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 195.30 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Methyl-5-(methylthio)benzo[d]thiazole 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.
