Chemical Structure

tert-Butyl 5-chloro-2-iodobenzoate CAS 397329-54-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

tert-Butyl 5-chloro-2-iodobenzoate (CAS 397329-54-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H12ClIO2 and a molecular weight of 338.57 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, tert-Butyl 5-chloro-2-iodobenzoate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 338.57 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO manufactures tert-Butyl 5-chloro-2-iodobenzoate 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.
