Chemical Structure

1-(5-bromobenzofuran-7-yl)ethanol CAS 796112-24-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 1-(5-bromobenzofuran-7-yl)ethanol is closely related to 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.

1-(5-bromobenzofuran-7-yl)ethanol (CAS 796112-24-8), molecular formula C10H17BrO2 and molecular weight 249.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1-(5-bromobenzofuran-7-yl)ethanol (C10H17BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

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.
