1,3-Isobenzofurandione, 4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-, polymer with 1,2-ethanediol and 2,5-furandione (CAS 65682-26-0), molecular formula C8Br4O3C4H2O3C2H6O2 and molecular weight 623.83 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 1,3-Isobenzofurandione, 4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-, polymer with 1,2-ethanediol and 2,5-furandione is typically pale yellow to yellow amorphous powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 623.83 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.
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.
