2-Iodooctane CAS 557-36-8 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 2-Iodooctane.

CATO supplies 2-Iodooctane (CAS 557-36-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H17I, MW 240.13 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C8H17I, 2-Iodooctane contains iodine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 240.13 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Iodooctane 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.
