Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethoxy)benzonitrile CAS 1261475-01-7 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethoxy)benzonitrile (C8H4BrF2NO) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethoxy)benzonitrile (CAS 1261475-01-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H4BrF2NO and a molecular weight of 248.02 g/mol.

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-Bromo-6-(difluoromethoxy)benzonitrile 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.
