The occurrence of 2-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan (CAS 17515-77-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H4BrF3O and a molecular weight of 228.99 g/mol.
2-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan (C6H4BrF3O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution. 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.
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-(Bromomethyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)furan 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.
