Chemical Structure

2-Bromohexanoylbromide CAS 54971-26-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromohexanoylbromide 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.

CATO supplies 2-Bromohexanoylbromide (CAS 54971-26-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C6H10Br2O, MW 257.95 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 2-Bromohexanoylbromide is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 257.95 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-Bromohexanoylbromide 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.
