Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-1-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene CAS 2386352-03-8 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 5-Bromo-1-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (C9H7Br2F3) contains fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 331.96 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

5-Bromo-1-(bromomethyl)-2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (CAS 2386352-03-8), molecular formula C9H7Br2F3 and molecular weight 331.96 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
