Chemical Structure

1-Fluoro-2-iodoethane CAS 762-51-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-Fluoro-2-iodoethane is closely related to fluorine/iodine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-Fluoro-2-iodoethane (CAS 762-51-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H4FI and a molecular weight of 173.96 g/mol.

Structurally, 1-Fluoro-2-iodoethane (C2H4FI) contains fluorine/iodine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 0.0, corresponding to approximately 0 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 173.96 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Fluoro-2-iodoethane meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
