Chemical Structure

1-(Difluoromethoxy)-3-iodobenzene CAS 518070-17-2 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 270.02 g/mol gives 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-3-iodobenzene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-3-iodobenzene (CAS 518070-17-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H5F2IO, MW 270.02 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(Difluoromethoxy)-3-iodobenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 270.02 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.

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.

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.
