Chemical Structure

4-tert-Butyl-4-(thiomethyl)benzophenone CAS 73242-05-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-tert-Butyl-4-(thiomethyl)benzophenone is closely related to a steroid core, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 4-tert-Butyl-4-(thiomethyl)benzophenone (CAS 73242-05-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C18H18OS, MW 282.40 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 4-tert-Butyl-4-(thiomethyl)benzophenone (C18H18OS) is characterized by a steroid core, sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-tert-Butyl-4-(thiomethyl)benzophenone 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.
