Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-1-indanol CAS 5400-80-6 chemical structure

Description

2-Bromo-1-indanol (CAS 5400-80-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H9BrO and a molecular weight of 213.07 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Bromo-1-indanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 213.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

CATO manufactures 2-Bromo-1-indanol under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
