Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 2-Bromo-5-(bromomethyl)pyrimidine is closely related to a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2-Bromo-5-(bromomethyl)pyrimidine (CAS 1807015-42-4), molecular formula C5H4Br2N2 and molecular weight 251.91 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 2-Bromo-5-(bromomethyl)pyrimidine is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 251.91 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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).
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 2-Bromo-5-(bromomethyl)pyrimidine 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.
