Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethyl)phenol CAS 1261813-91-5 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethyl)phenol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 223.01 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.

2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethyl)phenol (CAS 1261813-91-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H5BrF2O and a molecular weight of 223.01 g/mol.

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), 2-Bromo-6-(difluoromethyl)phenol 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.
