Chemical Structure

(2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)hydrazine CAS 72790-96-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)hydrazine is closely related to an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)hydrazine (CAS 72790-96-6), molecular formula C6H6BrN3O2 and molecular weight 232.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C6H6BrN3O2, (2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)hydrazine contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 232.03 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), (2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)hydrazine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
