Chemical Structure

3-Iodo-4-methylthiophene CAS 16494-41-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Iodo-4-methylthiophene is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, iodine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-Iodo-4-methylthiophene (CAS 16494-41-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5IS and a molecular weight of 224.06 g/mol.

3-Iodo-4-methylthiophene (C5H5IS) 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), 3-Iodo-4-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.
