Description
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
2,5-Dibromo-3,6-dihydroxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (CAS 4370-59-6), molecular formula C6H2Br2O4 and molecular weight 297.89 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
2,5-Dibromo-3,6-dihydroxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (C6H2Br2O4) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. It is notably hygroscopic, halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
CATO manufactures 2,5-Dibromo-3,6-dihydroxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione 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.
