Chemical Structure
Description
As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-(2-Bromo-6-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile 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.
2-(2-Bromo-6-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile (CAS 76574-39-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H5BrClN and a molecular weight of 230.49 g/mol.
Structurally, 2-(2-Bromo-6-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile (C8H5BrClN) contains a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, chlorine/bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 6.0, corresponding to approximately 6 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 230.49 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).
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.
