The occurrence of 7-Bromo-2-methylquinoxaline is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
7-Bromo-2-methylquinoxaline (CAS 76982-27-9) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C9H7BrN2 and a molecular weight of 223.07 g/mol.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 7-Bromo-2-methylquinoxaline is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 223.07 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
CATO manufactures 7-Bromo-2-methylquinoxaline under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
