CATO supplies (2R,3S,4S,5S)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydroxy-6-iodohexanal (CAS 6304-86-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H11IO5, MW 290.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Structurally, (2R,3S,4S,5S)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydroxy-6-iodohexanal (C6H11IO5) contains a carbohydrate-derived structure, iodine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 290.05 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.
