Chemical Structure

tert-butyl 2-iodoimidazole-1-carboxylate CAS 181220-75-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of tert-butyl 2-iodoimidazole-1-carboxylate is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies tert-butyl 2-iodoimidazole-1-carboxylate (CAS 181220-75-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H15IN2O2, MW 298.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, tert-butyl 2-iodoimidazole-1-carboxylate is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 298.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), tert-butyl 2-iodoimidazole-1-carboxylate 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.
