5-Iodo-4-methyl-2H-thiopyran-3(6H)-one (CAS 141666-61-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H7IOS and a molecular weight of 254.09 g/mol.
Owing to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, 5-Iodo-4-methyl-2H-thiopyran-3(6H)-one is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 254.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Iodo-4-methyl-2H-thiopyran-3(6H)-one 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.
