Chemical Structure

2,3,4,7,8-Pentabromodibenzofuran CAS 131166-92-2 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 2,3,4,7,8-Pentabromodibenzofuran.

CATO supplies 2,3,4,7,8-Pentabromodibenzofuran (CAS 131166-92-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H3Br5O, MW 562.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,3,4,7,8-Pentabromodibenzofuran (C12H3Br5O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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).

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), 2,3,4,7,8-Pentabromodibenzofuran 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.
