Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)benzoate CAS 95420-73-8 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Methyl 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)benzoate 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.

Methyl 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)benzoate (CAS 95420-73-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H10O3S and a molecular weight of 198.24 g/mol.

Methyl 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)benzoate (C9H10O3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.
