Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-9H-xanthen-9-one CAS 500286-36-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Bromo-9H-xanthen-9-one is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

CATO supplies 3-Bromo-9H-xanthen-9-one (CAS 500286-36-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H7BrO2, MW 275.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 3-Bromo-9H-xanthen-9-one (C13H7BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 10.0, corresponding to approximately 10 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 275.10 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Bromo-9H-xanthen-9-one 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.
