Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-2-fluoroethanol CAS 459424-41-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-2-fluoroethanol is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-2-fluoroethanol (CAS 459424-41-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C2H4BrFO, MW 142.95 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-2-fluoroethanol (C2H4BrFO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/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.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-2-fluoroethanol 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.
