Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-5-iodophenyl acetate CAS 2842016-87-7 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-5-iodophenyl acetate is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-5-iodophenyl acetate (CAS 2842016-87-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H6BrIO2, MW 340.94 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine/iodine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Bromo-5-iodophenyl acetate is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 340.94 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
