Chemical Structure

2-(3-Iodophenyl)acetaldehyde CAS 109347-42-4 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(3-Iodophenyl)acetaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 246.05 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).

2-(3-Iodophenyl)acetaldehyde (CAS 109347-42-4), molecular formula C8H7IO and molecular weight 246.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

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.
