The occurrence of Bis(2-bromoethyl) Ether is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
Bis(2-bromoethyl) Ether (CAS 5414-19-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H8Br2O and a molecular weight of 231.91 g/mol.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, Bis(2-bromoethyl) Ether is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 231.91 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.
