Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2-chloro-1-methoxy-3-nitrobenzene CAS 63603-16-7 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 5-Bromo-2-chloro-1-methoxy-3-nitrobenzene 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.

5-Bromo-2-chloro-1-methoxy-3-nitrobenzene (CAS 63603-16-7), molecular formula C7H5BrClNO3 and molecular weight 266.48 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 5-Bromo-2-chloro-1-methoxy-3-nitrobenzene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 266.48 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.
