Chemical Structure

1-(4-Bromo-2-hydroxy-5-methoxyphenyl)-2-chloroethan-1-one CAS 299417-38-2 chemical structure

Description

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(4-Bromo-2-hydroxy-5-methoxyphenyl)-2-chloroethan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 279.52 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).

CATO supplies 1-(4-Bromo-2-hydroxy-5-methoxyphenyl)-2-chloroethan-1-one (CAS 299417-38-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8BrClO3, MW 279.52 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.
