1-(2-Bromoethyl)-3-(bromomethyl)benzene (CAS 143260-79-1), molecular formula C9H10Br2 and molecular weight 277.98 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(2-Bromoethyl)-3-(bromomethyl)benzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 277.98 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
