The occurrence of 4-(2,2-Dibromovinyl)hexahydro-2H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-ol is closely related to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 4-(2,2-Dibromovinyl)hexahydro-2H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-ol (CAS 61401-33-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H12Br2O2, MW 312.00 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 4-(2,2-Dibromovinyl)hexahydro-2H-cyclopenta[b]furan-2-ol is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 312.00 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).
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.
