Chemical Structure

2-Bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane CAS 4360-63-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane (CAS 4360-63-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H7BrO2, MW 167.00 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane (C4H7BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, 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.

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 2-Bromomethyl-1,3-dioxolane 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.
