The occurrence of Tricyclo[8.2.2.24,7]hexadeca-4,6,10,12,13,15-hexaene, 5,11-dibromo-, stereoisomer is closely related to bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Tricyclo[8.2.2.24,7]hexadeca-4,6,10,12,13,15-hexaene, 5,11-dibromo-, stereoisomer (CAS 196316-30-0), molecular formula C16H14Br2 and molecular weight 366.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, Tricyclo[8.2.2.24,7]hexadeca-4,6,10,12,13,15-hexaene, 5,11-dibromo-, stereoisomer is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 366.09 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
