CATO manufactures 2-(bromomethyl)-1,3-dichloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
2-(bromomethyl)-1,3-dichloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (CAS 474889-71-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H4BrCl2F3 and a molecular weight of 307.92 g/mol.
Owing to fluorine/chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-(bromomethyl)-1,3-dichloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 307.92 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
