Chemical Structure

Methyl 2,5-diiodobenzoate CAS 14192-13-3 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 2,5-diiodobenzoate (CAS 14192-13-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6I2O2 and a molecular weight of 387.94 g/mol.

The molecular framework of Methyl 2,5-diiodobenzoate (C8H6I2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures Methyl 2,5-diiodobenzoate under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
