Chemical Structure
Description
Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 225.01 g/mol gives 3-Bromobenzotrifluoride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 3-Bromobenzotrifluoride (CAS 401-78-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H4BrF3, MW 225.01 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 3-Bromobenzotrifluoride (C7H4BrF3) is characterized by fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. 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.
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.
