Chemical Structure

4-Bromobenzene-1,2,3-triol CAS 17345-72-1 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Bromobenzene-1,2,3-triol 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.

4-Bromobenzene-1,2,3-triol (CAS 17345-72-1), molecular formula C6H5BrO3 and molecular weight 205.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Bromobenzene-1,2,3-triol (C6H5BrO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 205.01 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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.
