Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 241.09 g/mol gives 1-{[(2-bromophenyl)methylidene]amino}guanidine distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
1-{[(2-bromophenyl)methylidene]amino}guanidine (CAS 170996-63-1), molecular formula C8H9BrN4 and molecular weight 241.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 1-{[(2-bromophenyl)methylidene]amino}guanidine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 241.09 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).
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-{[(2-bromophenyl)methylidene]amino}guanidine 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.
