Chemical Structure

Tribromoethylene CAS 598-16-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Tribromoethylene is closely related to bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Tribromoethylene (CAS 598-16-3), molecular formula C2HBr3 and molecular weight 264.74 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to bromine substitution, Tribromoethylene is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 264.74 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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), Tribromoethylene 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.
