Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde CAS 174265-12-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde (CAS 174265-12-4), molecular formula C7H4BrClO and molecular weight 219.46 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde (C7H4BrClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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-Bromo-5-chlorobenzaldehyde 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.
