7-Bromo-2-methylheptan-2-ol (CAS 107768-04-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H17BrO and a molecular weight of 209.12 g/mol.
7-Bromo-2-methylheptan-2-ol (C8H17BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
