Chemical Structure

2-bromo-1-(3,4-difluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one CAS 1621375-69-6 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO supplies 2-bromo-1-(3,4-difluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one (CAS 1621375-69-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H5BrF2O2, MW 251.02 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-bromo-1-(3,4-difluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 251.02 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).

CATO manufactures 2-bromo-1-(3,4-difluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
