Chemical Structure

2-Iodothiophene-3-carboxylic acid CAS 18895-00-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 254.05 g/mol gives 2-Iodothiophene-3-carboxylic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

2-Iodothiophene-3-carboxylic acid (CAS 18895-00-6), molecular formula C5H3IO2S and molecular weight 254.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Iodothiophene-3-carboxylic acid (C5H3IO2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Iodothiophene-3-carboxylic acid 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.
