Chemical Structure

2,3-Dibromopropionitrile CAS 4554-16-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,3-Dibromopropionitrile.

2,3-Dibromopropionitrile (CAS 4554-16-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C3H3Br2N and a molecular weight of 212.87 g/mol.

Structurally, 2,3-Dibromopropionitrile (C3H3Br2N) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 2.0, corresponding to approximately 2 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 212.87 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), 2,3-Dibromopropionitrile 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.
