Chemical Structure

Bithionol CAS 97-18-7 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 356.05 g/mol gives Bithionol distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

Bithionol (CAS 97-18-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H6Cl4O2S and a molecular weight of 356.05 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C12H6Cl4O2S, Bithionol contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 356.05 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
