Chemical Structure

2-((4-Methylbenzyl)thio)ethan-1-ol CAS 89040-08-4 chemical structure

Description

Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system, 2-((4-Methylbenzyl)thio)ethan-1-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 182.28 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

2-((4-Methylbenzyl)thio)ethan-1-ol (CAS 89040-08-4), molecular formula C10H14OS and molecular weight 182.28 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
