Chemical Structure

2,4-dibromo-2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone CAS 17346-16-6 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,4-dibromo-2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone.

2,4-dibromo-2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone (CAS 17346-16-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H12Br2O and a molecular weight of 271.98 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 2,4-dibromo-2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 271.98 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), 2,4-dibromo-2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone 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.
