Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-6-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one CAS 20875-75-6 chemical structure

Description

3-Bromo-6-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one (CAS 20875-75-6), molecular formula C10H7BrO2 and molecular weight 239.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-Bromo-6-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one (C10H7BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, 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. 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.

CATO manufactures 3-Bromo-6-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
