General description

The product is 2M solution of iodomethane in tert-butyl methyl ether. Iodomethane also known as methyl iodide is an alkyl halide commonly employed as methylating agent.

Application

  • 8-plex LC-MS/MS Analysis of Permethylated N-Glycans Achieved by Using Stable Isotopic Iodomethane.: This research demonstrates the use of iodomethane in stable isotope labeling for the mass spectrometric analysis of permethylated N-glycans. The method enhances the accuracy and sensitivity of glycomic studies (Dong et al., 2019).
  • Comparative glycomic profiling of isotopically permethylated N-glycans by liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.: The study presents a comparative analysis of N-glycan profiles using isotopically labeled iodomethane, improving the resolution and identification of glycan structures in complex biological samples (Hu et al., 2013).
  • Antifungal property of quaternized chitosan and its derivatives.: This paper explores the synthesis of quaternized chitosan derivatives using iodomethane and their subsequent antifungal activities. The results suggest potential applications in biomedical and agricultural fields (Sajomsang et al., 2012).
  • Validation of two fluoro-analogues of N,N-dimethyl-2-(2′-amino-4′-hydroxymethyl-phenylthio)benzylamine as serotonin transporter imaging agents using microPET.: This research validates fluoro-analogues of a serotonin transporter imaging agent, synthesized using iodomethane, highlighting its potential in neuroimaging applications (Jarkas et al., 2010).
