Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 307.18 g/mol gives 5-Bromotetracene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
5-Bromotetracene (CAS 23790-75-2), molecular formula C18H11Br and molecular weight 307.18 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
5-Bromotetracene (C18H11Br) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; 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.
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), 5-Bromotetracene 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.
