Chemical Structure

4,6-Dibromodibenzofuran CAS 201138-91-2 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 4,6-Dibromodibenzofuran (C12H6Br2O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

4,6-Dibromodibenzofuran (CAS 201138-91-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H6Br2O and a molecular weight of 325.98 g/mol.

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.
