3,5-Dichloro-4-iodotoluene (CAS 939990-12-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H5Cl2I and a molecular weight of 286.93 g/mol.
Owing to chlorine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3,5-Dichloro-4-iodotoluene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 286.93 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).
As a certified reference material (CRM), 3,5-Dichloro-4-iodotoluene 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.
