Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-5-fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid CAS 1807041-76-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-Bromo-5-fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid (CAS 1807041-76-4), molecular formula C7H4BrFO3 and molecular weight 235.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 2-Bromo-5-fluoro-3-hydroxybenzoic acid (C7H4BrFO3) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 5.0, corresponding to approximately 5 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 235.01 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
