Chemical Structure

1-Bromo-2-Nitroethane CAS 10524-56-8 chemical structure

Description

1-Bromo-2-Nitroethane (CAS 10524-56-8), molecular formula C2H4BrNO2 and molecular weight 153.96 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 1-Bromo-2-Nitroethane is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 153.96 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Bromo-2-Nitroethane 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.
