The occurrence of 5-Bromo-2-(2-methylphenyl)pyridine is closely related to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
CATO supplies 5-Bromo-2-(2-methylphenyl)pyridine (CAS 88345-94-2), a certified reference material (molecular formula C12H10BrN, MW 248.12 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution, 5-Bromo-2-(2-methylphenyl)pyridine is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 248.12 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.
