4-(2-Bromoethyl)pyridine CAS 39232-05-8 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 4-(2-Bromoethyl)pyridine (CAS 39232-05-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H8BrN, MW 186.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C7H8BrN, 4-(2-Bromoethyl)pyridine contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 186.05 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
