Chemical Structure

1,1,2-Tribromoethane CAS 78-74-0 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 1,1,2-Tribromoethane.

1,1,2-Tribromoethane (CAS 78-74-0), molecular formula C2H3Br3 and molecular weight 266.76 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C2H3Br3, 1,1,2-Tribromoethane contains bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic molecular-ion distribution patterns in mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of 266.76 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.

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.
