Chemical Structure

5-(Bromomethyl)isothiazole CAS 208837-85-8 chemical structure

Description

5-(Bromomethyl)isothiazole (C4H4BrNS) contains a nitrile group, sulfur-containing functionality, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; 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.
