The occurrence of 2,4-Dibromo-biphenyl is closely related to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
2,4-Dibromo-biphenyl (CAS 53592-10-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H8Br2 and a molecular weight of 312.00 g/mol.
Structurally, 2,4-Dibromo-biphenyl (C12H8Br2) 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 312.00 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. 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).
