Chemical Structure

1,2,3,7,8-Pentabromodibenzo-p-dioxin CAS 109333-34-8 chemical structure

Description

1,2,3,7,8-Pentabromodibenzo-p-dioxin (CAS 109333-34-8), molecular formula C12H3Br5O2 and molecular weight 578.67 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C12H3Br5O2, 1,2,3,7,8-Pentabromodibenzo-p-dioxin contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 578.67 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO manufactures 1,2,3,7,8-Pentabromodibenzo-p-dioxin under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
