Chemical Structure

1-bromo-3-fluoro-naphthalene CAS 343-53-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-bromo-3-fluoro-naphthalene is closely related to fluorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-bromo-3-fluoro-naphthalene (CAS 343-53-3), molecular formula C10H16BrF and molecular weight 235.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to fluorine/bromine substitution, 1-bromo-3-fluoro-naphthalene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 235.14 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.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-bromo-3-fluoro-naphthalene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
