The occurrence of Bis(1-phenylethyl)sulfane is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Bis(1-phenylethyl)sulfane (CAS 838-59-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C16H18S and a molecular weight of 242.38 g/mol.
Bis(1-phenylethyl)sulfane (C16H18S) contains sulfur-containing functionality, a polycyclic aromatic system. Its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
