Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride CAS 85663-09-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride (C8H3BrClF3O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, fluorine/chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride (CAS 85663-09-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H3BrClF3O, MW 287.46 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 2-Bromo-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride 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.
