Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-1-(2-pyridyl)ethanone CAS 40086-66-6 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C7H6BrNO, 2-Bromo-1-(2-pyridyl)ethanone contains an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 200.03 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).
