Chemical Structure

1-Methyl-4-tosyl-1H-imidazole-5-thiol CAS 81291-85-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

1-Methyl-4-tosyl-1H-imidazole-5-thiol (CAS 81291-85-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12N2O2S2 and a molecular weight of 268.36 g/mol.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a sulfone group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 1-Methyl-4-tosyl-1H-imidazole-5-thiol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.36 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures 1-Methyl-4-tosyl-1H-imidazole-5-thiol 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.
