Chemical Structure

Methyl 2-iodo-3,4-dimethoxybenzoate CAS 90794-40-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Methyl 2-iodo-3,4-dimethoxybenzoate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Methyl 2-iodo-3,4-dimethoxybenzoate (CAS 90794-40-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H11IO4 and a molecular weight of 322.10 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H11IO4, Methyl 2-iodo-3,4-dimethoxybenzoate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 322.10 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), Methyl 2-iodo-3,4-dimethoxybenzoate 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.
