Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-mercaptopentanoate CAS 83009-94-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Methyl 5-mercaptopentanoate.

CATO supplies Methyl 5-mercaptopentanoate (CAS 83009-94-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H12O2S, MW 148.22 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Methyl 5-mercaptopentanoate (C6H12O2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. The carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions.

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), Methyl 5-mercaptopentanoate 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.
