Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-1,10-phenanthroline hydrate CAS 855360-86-0 chemical structure

Description

CATO supplies 5-Bromo-1,10-phenanthroline hydrate (CAS 855360-86-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H7BrN2, MW 259.10 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 5-Bromo-1,10-phenanthroline hydrate is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 259.10 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
