Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2-chlorobenzonitrile CAS 57381-44-9 chemical structure

Description

5-Bromo-2-chlorobenzonitrile (CAS 57381-44-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H3BrClN and a molecular weight of 216.46 g/mol.

5-Bromo-2-chlorobenzonitrile (C7H3BrClN) contains a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Bromo-2-chlorobenzonitrile 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.
