Chemical Structure

8-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline CAS 176722-63-7 chemical structure

Description

8-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (CAS 176722-63-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H5BrF3N and a molecular weight of 276.05 g/mol.

8-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline (C10H5BrF3N) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, fluorine/bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

CATO manufactures 8-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
