The occurrence of 2,7-Dibromo-9,9’-spirobifluorene is closely related to bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2,7-Dibromo-9,9’-spirobifluorene (CAS 171408-84-7), molecular formula C25H14Br2 and molecular weight 474.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of 2,7-Dibromo-9,9’-spirobifluorene (C25H14Br2) is characterized by bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
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), 2,7-Dibromo-9,9’-spirobifluorene 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.
