Chemical Structure

5-(Bromomethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran CAS 196598-26-2 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-(Bromomethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (CAS 196598-26-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H9BrO, MW 213.07 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 5-(Bromomethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (C9H9BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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 213.07 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

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.
