Chemical Structure

Methyl 3-iodo-2-methoxybenzoate CAS 620621-40-1 chemical structure

Description

Methyl 3-iodo-2-methoxybenzoate (C9H9IO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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).
