Chemical Structure

3,4-Dichloro-5-methylphenacyl bromide CAS 1806288-57-2 chemical structure

Description

3,4-Dichloro-5-methylphenacyl bromide (CAS 1806288-57-2), molecular formula C9H7BrCl2O and molecular weight 281.96 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 3,4-Dichloro-5-methylphenacyl bromide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 281.96 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.

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), 3,4-Dichloro-5-methylphenacyl bromide 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.
