Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 394.01 g/mol gives 5-Bromo-2,3-bis-pentafluoroethyl-pyridine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
5-Bromo-2,3-bis-pentafluoroethyl-pyridine (CAS 1246466-86-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H2BrF10N and a molecular weight of 394.01 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/bromine substitution, 5-Bromo-2,3-bis-pentafluoroethyl-pyridine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 394.01 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
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 5-Bromo-2,3-bis-pentafluoroethyl-pyridine 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.
