The occurrence of (2-Bromo-6-iodophenyl)methanol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
(2-Bromo-6-iodophenyl)methanol (CAS 1261850-41-2), molecular formula C7H6BrIO and molecular weight 312.93 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C7H6BrIO, (2-Bromo-6-iodophenyl)methanol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 312.93 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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), (2-Bromo-6-iodophenyl)methanol 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.
