3-Chloro-5-methylbenzenethiol CAS 859792-80-6 chemical structure

Description

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

3-Chloro-5-methylbenzenethiol (CAS 859792-80-6), molecular formula C7H7ClS and molecular weight 158.65 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

3-Chloro-5-methylbenzenethiol (C7H7ClS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
