Chemical Structure

6-Bromo-3-oxoindane-5-carbonitrile CAS 1156467-77-4 chemical structure

Description

6-Bromo-3-oxoindane-5-carbonitrile (CAS 1156467-77-4), molecular formula C10H6BrNO and molecular weight 236.06 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 6-Bromo-3-oxoindane-5-carbonitrile is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 236.06 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.

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), 6-Bromo-3-oxoindane-5-carbonitrile 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.
