Chemical Structure

1-Bromo-3-chlorobutane CAS 56481-42-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-Bromo-3-chlorobutane is closely related to chlorine/bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

1-Bromo-3-chlorobutane (CAS 56481-42-6) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C4H8BrCl and a molecular weight of 171.46 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C4H8BrCl, 1-Bromo-3-chlorobutane contains chlorine/bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 171.46 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Bromo-3-chlorobutane meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
