5-Iodo-1-methylpyrazole (CAS 34091-51-5), molecular formula C4H5IN2 and molecular weight 208.00 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, iodine substitution, 5-Iodo-1-methylpyrazole is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 208.00 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
