Chemical Structure

4-Bromocyclopent-2-en-1-one CAS 765-56-0 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 4-Bromocyclopent-2-en-1-one.

CATO supplies 4-Bromocyclopent-2-en-1-one (CAS 765-56-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C5H5BrO, MW 161.00 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 4-Bromocyclopent-2-en-1-one (C5H5BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 3.0, corresponding to approximately 3 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 161.00 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. 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).

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

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.
