Chemical Structure

Methyl 5-chloro-2-iodo-3-nitrobenzoate CAS 855471-31-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

Methyl 5-chloro-2-iodo-3-nitrobenzoate (CAS 855471-31-7), molecular formula C8H5ClINO4 and molecular weight 341.49 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Methyl 5-chloro-2-iodo-3-nitrobenzoate (C8H5ClINO4) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/iodine substitution. 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 aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO manufactures Methyl 5-chloro-2-iodo-3-nitrobenzoate 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.
