[3-ethyl-5-(iodomethyl)oxolan-3-yl]methanol (CAS 2031261-16-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H15IO2 and a molecular weight of 270.11 g/mol.
The molecular framework of [3-ethyl-5-(iodomethyl)oxolan-3-yl]methanol (C8H15IO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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-ethyl-5-(iodomethyl)oxolan-3-yl]methanol 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.
