Chemical Structure

3-Iodo-5-methylbenzoyl chloride CAS 52107-95-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 280.49 g/mol gives 3-Iodo-5-methylbenzoyl chloride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

3-Iodo-5-methylbenzoyl chloride (CAS 52107-95-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H6ClIO and a molecular weight of 280.49 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3-Iodo-5-methylbenzoyl chloride is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 280.49 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).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Iodo-5-methylbenzoyl chloride meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
