Chemical Structure

1-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-2-nitrobenzene CAS 89642-19-3 chemical structure

Description

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.

1-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-2-nitrobenzene (CAS 89642-19-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H5BrClNO2 and a molecular weight of 250.48 g/mol.

1-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-2-nitrobenzene (C7H5BrClNO2) contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-2-nitrobenzene 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.
