Chemical Structure

7-Bromo-5-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol CAS 1491101-20-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 7-Bromo-5-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

7-Bromo-5-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol (CAS 1491101-20-2), molecular formula C9H9BrO2 and molecular weight 229.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 7-Bromo-5-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 229.07 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.

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), 7-Bromo-5-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol 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.
