Chemical Structure

1-(7-Bromobenzofuran-2-yl)ethanone CAS 460086-95-7 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 1-(7-Bromobenzofuran-2-yl)ethanone.

1-(7-Bromobenzofuran-2-yl)ethanone (CAS 460086-95-7), molecular formula C10H7BrO2 and molecular weight 239.07 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1-(7-Bromobenzofuran-2-yl)ethanone is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 239.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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), 1-(7-Bromobenzofuran-2-yl)ethanone 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.
