Chemical Structure

(E)-3-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-chloroacrylaldehyde CAS 161891-31-2 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), (E)-3-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-chloroacrylaldehyde 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.

(E)-3-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-chloroacrylaldehyde (CAS 161891-31-2), molecular formula C9H6BrClO and molecular weight 245.50 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (E)-3-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-chloroacrylaldehyde is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 245.50 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.
