Chemical Structure

2-(Bromomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine CAS 781637-62-5 chemical structure

Description

Based on its molecular formula C7H5BrF3N, 2-(Bromomethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine contains a nitrile group, fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 240.02 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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).
