2-Chloro-4-fluorophenacyl bromide CAS 61397-54-4 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-Chloro-4-fluorophenacyl bromide under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

2-Chloro-4-fluorophenacyl bromide (CAS 61397-54-4), molecular formula C8H5BrClFO and molecular weight 251.48 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Chloro-4-fluorophenacyl bromide is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 251.48 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.
