Chemical Structure

2,3-Dibromo-Propanal CAS 5221-17-0 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.

CATO supplies 2,3-Dibromo-Propanal (CAS 5221-17-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C3H4Br2O, MW 215.87 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Based on its molecular formula C3H4Br2O, 2,3-Dibromo-Propanal contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 215.87 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
