Chemical Structure

4-Iodo-3-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid CAS 854625-84-6 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 4-Iodo-3-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic 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.

4-Iodo-3-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid (CAS 854625-84-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H5IO2S and a molecular weight of 268.07 g/mol.

Owing to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Iodo-3-methylthiophene-2-carboxylic acid is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).

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.
