Chemical Structure

1-Bromo-3-(1,1-difluoroethyl)benzene CAS 445303-70-8 chemical structure

Description

1-Bromo-3-(1,1-difluoroethyl)benzene (CAS 445303-70-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H7BrF2 and a molecular weight of 221.04 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-Bromo-3-(1,1-difluoroethyl)benzene (C8H7BrF2) 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 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).

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), 1-Bromo-3-(1,1-difluoroethyl)benzene 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.
