Chemical Structure

3-(bromomethyl)benzofuran CAS 38281-49-1 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 3-(bromomethyl)benzofuran (C9H15BrO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

3-(bromomethyl)benzofuran (CAS 38281-49-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H15BrO and a molecular weight of 219.12 g/mol.

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 3-(bromomethyl)benzofuran 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.
