Chemical Structure

Bromo(methanesulfonyl)methane CAS 78967-61-0 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of Bromo(methanesulfonyl)methane is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

Bromo(methanesulfonyl)methane (CAS 78967-61-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C2H5BrO2S and a molecular weight of 173.03 g/mol.

Bromo(methanesulfonyl)methane (C2H5BrO2S) contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Bromo(methanesulfonyl)methane 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.
