Chemical Structure

2-(bromomethyl)-3-methyl-pyridine CAS 438218-62-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-(bromomethyl)-3-methyl-pyridine is closely related to bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-(bromomethyl)-3-methyl-pyridine (CAS 438218-62-3), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H14BrN, MW 192.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-(bromomethyl)-3-methyl-pyridine (C7H14BrN) contains bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 192.10 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(bromomethyl)-3-methyl-pyridine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
