Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 3-Chloro-2-Methylphenyl Methyl Sulfide.
CATO supplies 3-Chloro-2-Methylphenyl Methyl Sulfide (CAS 82961-52-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H9ClS, MW 172.68 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Chloro-2-Methylphenyl Methyl Sulfide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 172.68 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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), 3-Chloro-2-Methylphenyl Methyl Sulfide 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.
