Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-2-methylbiphenyl CAS 5002-26-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-Bromo-2-methylbiphenyl is closely related to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-Bromo-2-methylbiphenyl (CAS 5002-26-6), molecular formula C13H11Br and molecular weight 247.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-Bromo-2-methylbiphenyl (C13H11Br) contains bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 247.13 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.

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

CATO manufactures 4-Bromo-2-methylbiphenyl 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.
