Chemical Structure

6-Bromo-5,5,6,6-tetrafluorohexan-1-ol CAS 240140-55-0 chemical structure

Description

6-Bromo-5,5,6,6-tetrafluorohexan-1-ol (CAS 240140-55-0), molecular formula C6H9BrF4O and molecular weight 253.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H9BrF4O, 6-Bromo-5,5,6,6-tetrafluorohexan-1-ol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 253.03 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

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.
