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.

2-(Bromomethyl)benzenemethanol 2-(Bromomethyl)benzyl alcohol 2-Hydroxymethylbenzylbromide 74785-02-7 (CAS 74785-02-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H15BrO and a molecular weight of 207.11 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula C8H15BrO, 2-(Bromomethyl)benzenemethanol 2-(Bromomethyl)benzyl alcohol 2-Hydroxymethylbenzylbromide 74785-02-7 contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 207.11 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.
