Chemical Structure

2-Iodo-6-nitrophenol CAS 13073-26-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-Iodo-6-nitrophenol (CAS 13073-26-2), molecular formula C6H4INO3 and molecular weight 265.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Iodo-6-nitrophenol (C6H4INO3) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 265.01 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.
