Chemical Structure

(3-Bromo-2,6-dimethylphenyl)methanol CAS 86246-72-2 chemical structure

Description

(3-Bromo-2,6-dimethylphenyl)methanol (CAS 86246-72-2), molecular formula C9H11BrO and molecular weight 215.09 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, (3-Bromo-2,6-dimethylphenyl)methanol is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 215.09 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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), (3-Bromo-2,6-dimethylphenyl)methanol 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.
