Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO supplies 5-Chloro-6-iodobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole (CAS 1012060-59-1), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H4ClIO2, MW 282.46 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-Chloro-6-iodobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 282.46 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Chloro-6-iodobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole 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.
