Chemical Structure

2,2-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane CAS 20599-01-3 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 2,2-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane (CAS 20599-01-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H8Br2O2, MW 259.92 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,2-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane (C5H8Br2O2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2,2-Bis(bromomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
