Chemical Structure

2-iodo-5-methylthiophene CAS 16494-36-3 chemical structure

Description

2-iodo-5-methylthiophene (CAS 16494-36-3), molecular formula C5H9IS and molecular weight 228.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-iodo-5-methylthiophene (C5H9IS) contains sulfur-containing functionality, iodine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-iodo-5-methylthiophene 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.
