Chemical Structure

2-Bromophenanthrene CAS 62162-97-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

2-Bromophenanthrene (CAS 62162-97-4), molecular formula C14H9Br and molecular weight 257.13 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 2-Bromophenanthrene is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 257.13 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromophenanthrene meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
