Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-3-nitropyridine CAS 19755-53-4 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromo-3-nitropyridine (CAS 19755-53-4), molecular formula C5H3BrN2O2 and molecular weight 202.99 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Bromo-3-nitropyridine (C5H3BrN2O2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.
