Chemical Structure

(2R)-2-(bromomethyl)oxolane CAS 57203-02-8 chemical structure

Description

(2R)-2-(bromomethyl)oxolane (CAS 57203-02-8), molecular formula C5H9BrO and molecular weight 165.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

(2R)-2-(bromomethyl)oxolane (C5H9BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
