Chemical Structure

3-Bromonaphthalene-1,2-dione CAS 7474-83-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Bromonaphthalene-1,2-dione is closely related to 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.

3-Bromonaphthalene-1,2-dione (CAS 7474-83-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H5BrO2 and a molecular weight of 237.05 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C10H5BrO2, 3-Bromonaphthalene-1,2-dione contains 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 237.05 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.

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

As a certified reference material (CRM), 3-Bromonaphthalene-1,2-dione 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.
