Chemical Structure

1,5-Dibromo-2,3-dimethylbenzene CAS 51209-82-6 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 263.96 g/mol gives 1,5-Dibromo-2,3-dimethylbenzene distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies 1,5-Dibromo-2,3-dimethylbenzene (CAS 51209-82-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H8Br2, MW 263.96 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 1,5-Dibromo-2,3-dimethylbenzene (C8H8Br2) is characterized by bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

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), 1,5-Dibromo-2,3-dimethylbenzene 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.
