Chemical Structure

5-Iodo-2-furaldehyde CAS 2689-65-8 chemical structure

Description

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.

5-Iodo-2-furaldehyde (CAS 2689-65-8), molecular formula C5H3IO2 and molecular weight 221.98 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Iodo-2-furaldehyde (C5H3IO2) contains 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.
