Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
2-Iodo-2-methylbutane (CAS 594-38-7), molecular formula C5H11I and molecular weight 198.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to iodine substitution, 2-Iodo-2-methylbutane is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 198.05 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.
CATO manufactures 2-Iodo-2-methylbutane 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.
