Chemical Structure

(5-Bromo-3-iodo-2-methylphenyl)methanol CAS 2092866-07-2 chemical structure

Description

(5-Bromo-3-iodo-2-methylphenyl)methanol (CAS 2092866-07-2), molecular formula C8H8BrIO and molecular weight 326.96 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (5-Bromo-3-iodo-2-methylphenyl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 326.96 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (5-Bromo-3-iodo-2-methylphenyl)methanol 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.
