Chemical Structure

2-Iodo-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenol CAS 20951-45-5 chemical structure

Description

2-Iodo-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenol (C7H7IO3S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, 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.
