Chemical Structure

2,6-Dibromotoluene CAS 69321-60-4 chemical structure

Description

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.

CATO supplies 2,6-Dibromotoluene (CAS 69321-60-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C7H6Br2, MW 249.93 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2,6-Dibromotoluene is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 249.93 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.
