Chemical Structure

3-Bromo-4-ethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole CAS 64907-56-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Bromo-4-ethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole is closely related to a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-Bromo-4-ethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (CAS 64907-56-8), molecular formula C4H6BrN3 and molecular weight 176.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 3-Bromo-4-ethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (C4H6BrN3) contains a nitrile group, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 176.01 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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.

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.
