CATO manufactures 1,2,3,4,6-Pentabromodibenzo[b,d]furan 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.
CATO supplies 1,2,3,4,6-Pentabromodibenzo[b,d]furan (CAS 617707-93-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H3Br5O, MW 562.67 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1,2,3,4,6-Pentabromodibenzo[b,d]furan is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 562.67 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.
