Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4′-(trifluoromethoxy)acetophenone CAS 103962-10-3 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

2-Bromo-4′-(trifluoromethoxy)acetophenone (CAS 103962-10-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H12BrF3O2 and a molecular weight of 289.09 g/mol.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, 2-Bromo-4′-(trifluoromethoxy)acetophenone is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 289.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-4′-(trifluoromethoxy)acetophenone 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.
