3-Iodo-4-methylbenzaldehyde CAS 58586-55-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

3-Iodo-4-methylbenzaldehyde (CAS 58586-55-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7IO and a molecular weight of 246.05 g/mol.

3-Iodo-4-methylbenzaldehyde (C8H7IO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
