1-(5-Bromo-4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)ethanone (CAS 1704367-12-3), molecular formula C8H5BrClFO and molecular weight 251.48 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 1-(5-Bromo-4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)ethanone (C8H5BrClFO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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), 1-(5-Bromo-4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)ethanone 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.
