Chemical Structure

2,6-Dibromo-4-aminophenol CAS 609-21-2 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C6H5Br2NO, 2,6-Dibromo-4-aminophenol contains an amide 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 266.92 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.

2,6-Dibromo-4-aminophenol (CAS 609-21-2), molecular formula C6H5Br2NO and molecular weight 266.92 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

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

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.
