Chemical Structure

Fluoroiodomethane CAS 373-53-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Fluoroiodomethane.

Fluoroiodomethane (CAS 373-53-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula CH2FI and a molecular weight of 159.93 g/mol.

Owing to fluorine/iodine substitution, Fluoroiodomethane is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 159.93 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures Fluoroiodomethane under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
