Chemical Structure
Description
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
3-(Bromomethyl)pyridine Hydrobromide (CAS 4916-55-6), molecular formula C6H6BrNHBr and molecular weight 252.94 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 3-(Bromomethyl)pyridine Hydrobromide is typically white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 252.94 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).
CATO manufactures 3-(Bromomethyl)pyridine Hydrobromide 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.
