Chemical Structure

2-Bromophenylethanol CAS 1074-16-4 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-Bromophenylethanol (CAS 1074-16-4), molecular formula C8H15BrO and molecular weight 207.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 2-Bromophenylethanol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 207.11 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-Bromophenylethanol 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.
