Chemical Structure

(3-Chloro-4-iodophenyl)methanol CAS 166386-60-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (3-Chloro-4-iodophenyl)methanol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(3-Chloro-4-iodophenyl)methanol (CAS 166386-60-3), molecular formula C7H6ClIO and molecular weight 268.48 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(3-Chloro-4-iodophenyl)methanol (C7H6ClIO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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.

CATO manufactures (3-Chloro-4-iodophenyl)methanol 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.
