2-Bromo-4-iododibenzofuran (CAS 1401068-25-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H6BrIO and a molecular weight of 372.98 g/mol.
2-Bromo-4-iododibenzofuran (C12H6BrIO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
