Chemical Structure

4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzyl Bromide CAS 862539-91-1 chemical structure

Description

4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzyl Bromide (C8H8BrF) contains fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; 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.

4-Fluoro-2-methylbenzyl Bromide (CAS 862539-91-1) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H8BrF and a molecular weight of 203.05 g/mol.

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.
