Chemical Structure

Tetra-n-butylammonium iodotetrachloride CAS 15625-59-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Tetra-n-butylammonium iodotetrachloride.

CATO supplies Tetra-n-butylammonium iodotetrachloride (CAS 15625-59-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H36NICl, MW 404.82 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, Tetra-n-butylammonium iodotetrachloride (C16H36NICl) contains chlorine/iodine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of -1.5, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 404.82 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-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.

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.
