Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of Benzyltrimethylammonium Bromide is closely related to a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Benzyltrimethylammonium Bromide (CAS 5350-41-4), molecular formula C10H16NBr and molecular weight 230.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
The molecular framework of Benzyltrimethylammonium Bromide (C10H16NBr) is characterized by a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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.
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.
