Chemical Structure

3-Iodothyroacetic Acid CAS 60578-17-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 3-Iodothyroacetic Acid (C14H11IO4) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

CATO supplies 3-Iodothyroacetic Acid (CAS 60578-17-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C14H11IO4, MW 370.14 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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 3-Iodothyroacetic Acid 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.
