Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-5-(4-fluorobenzyl)furan CAS 154355-81-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-5-(4-fluorobenzyl)furan (CAS 154355-81-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C11H8BrFO, MW 255.08 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Bromo-5-(4-fluorobenzyl)furan is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 255.08 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
