Chemical Structure

2,3-Dibromo-6,7-dicyanonaphthalene CAS 74815-81-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2,3-Dibromo-6,7-dicyanonaphthalene.

CATO supplies 2,3-Dibromo-6,7-dicyanonaphthalene (CAS 74815-81-9), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H4Br2N2, MW 335.98 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

The molecular framework of 2,3-Dibromo-6,7-dicyanonaphthalene (C12H4Br2N2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

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.
