Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,5-dicyanobenzene is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,5-dicyanobenzene (CAS 64746-04-9), molecular formula C10H6Br2N2 and molecular weight 313.98 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 1,4-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,5-dicyanobenzene is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 313.98 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
