Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4’-fluorobenzophenone CAS 573-46-6 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-4’-fluorobenzophenone (CAS 573-46-6), a certified reference material (molecular formula C13H8BrFO, MW 279.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Bromo-4’-fluorobenzophenone (C13H8BrFO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 279.10 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-4’-fluorobenzophenone 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.
