Chemical Structure

Bromoacetyl Bromide CAS 598-21-0 chemical structure

Description

Bromoacetyl Bromide (C2H2Br2O) 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.

Bromoacetyl Bromide (CAS 598-21-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H2Br2O and a molecular weight of 201.84 g/mol.

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.
