The occurrence of 2-(3-Iodo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid 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.
2-(3-Iodo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid (CAS 1261864-11-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9IO2 and a molecular weight of 276.07 g/mol.
2-(3-Iodo-5-methylphenyl)acetic acid (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. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
