Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-6-methylnaphthalene CAS 37796-78-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Bromo-6-methylnaphthalene.

2-Bromo-6-methylnaphthalene (CAS 37796-78-4), molecular formula C11H9Br and molecular weight 221.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Bromo-6-methylnaphthalene (C11H9Br) contains bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-6-methylnaphthalene 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.
