3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzyl bromide CAS 1804417-98-8 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 3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzyl bromide.

3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzyl bromide (CAS 1804417-98-8), molecular formula C8H7BrF2 and molecular weight 221.04 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzyl bromide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 221.04 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

CATO manufactures 3,4-Difluoro-5-methylbenzyl bromide 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.
