Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2,3-dichlorotoluene CAS 204930-38-1 chemical structure

Description

Owing to chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-Bromo-2,3-dichlorotoluene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 239.92 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

5-Bromo-2,3-dichlorotoluene (CAS 204930-38-1), molecular formula C7H5BrCl2 and molecular weight 239.92 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.
