Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-2,6-difluoro-alpha-methylbenzyl Alcohol CAS 1214900-62-5 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Bromo-2,6-difluoro-alpha-methylbenzyl Alcohol.

4-Bromo-2,6-difluoro-alpha-methylbenzyl Alcohol (CAS 1214900-62-5), molecular formula C8H7BrF2O and molecular weight 237.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 4-Bromo-2,6-difluoro-alpha-methylbenzyl Alcohol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 237.04 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Bromo-2,6-difluoro-alpha-methylbenzyl Alcohol 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.
