2-Bromo-N-(hydroxymethyl)acetamide CAS 71990-02-8 chemical structure

Description

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

2-Bromo-N-(hydroxymethyl)acetamide (CAS 71990-02-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C3H6BrNO2 and a molecular weight of 167.99 g/mol.

2-Bromo-N-(hydroxymethyl)acetamide (C3H6BrNO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO manufactures 2-Bromo-N-(hydroxymethyl)acetamide 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.
