Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-2-methylpyrimidine CAS 1114560-76-7 chemical structure

Description

4-Bromo-2-methylpyrimidine (CAS 1114560-76-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C5H5BrN2 and a molecular weight of 173.01 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C5H5BrN2, 4-Bromo-2-methylpyrimidine contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 173.01 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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

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.
