Chemical Structure

5-Bromoacenaphthenequinone CAS 26254-35-3 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 261.07 g/mol gives 5-Bromoacenaphthenequinone distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

5-Bromoacenaphthenequinone (CAS 26254-35-3), molecular formula C12H5BrO2 and molecular weight 261.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-Bromoacenaphthenequinone is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 261.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.

CATO manufactures 5-Bromoacenaphthenequinone under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
