Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Methyl 2-Iodo-5-methylbenzoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Methyl 2-Iodo-5-methylbenzoate (CAS 103440-52-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9IO2 and a molecular weight of 276.07 g/mol.
Methyl 2-Iodo-5-methylbenzoate (C9H9IO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.
