Chemical Structure

Pentabromobenzyl Acrylate CAS 59447-55-1 chemical structure

Description

As a certified reference material (CRM), Pentabromobenzyl Acrylate 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.

Pentabromobenzyl Acrylate (CAS 59447-55-1), molecular formula C10H5Br5O2 and molecular weight 556.67 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C10H5Br5O2, Pentabromobenzyl Acrylate contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 556.67 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.
