The occurrence of Methyl 5-iodo-2-methoxybenzoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies Methyl 5-iodo-2-methoxybenzoate (CAS 40757-09-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H9IO3, MW 292.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, Methyl 5-iodo-2-methoxybenzoate (C9H9IO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 292.07 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).
