Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2,2’-bipyridine CAS 15862-19-8 chemical structure

Description

5-Bromo-2,2’-bipyridine (CAS 15862-19-8), molecular formula C10H7BrN2 and molecular weight 235.08 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Bromo-2,2’-bipyridine (C10H7BrN2) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. 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. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

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), 5-Bromo-2,2’-bipyridine 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.
