Chemical Structure

2,3-Dibromomaleinimide CAS 1122-10-7 chemical structure

Description

2,3-Dibromomaleinimide (CAS 1122-10-7), molecular formula C4HBr2NO2 and molecular weight 254.86 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2,3-Dibromomaleinimide (C4HBr2NO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 254.86 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,3-Dibromomaleinimide 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.
