Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 291.97 g/mol gives 5,7-Dibromo-2-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies 5,7-Dibromo-2-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (CAS 89819-20-5), a certified reference material (molecular formula C9H8Br2O, MW 291.97 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
5,7-Dibromo-2-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran (C9H8Br2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, 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.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
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.
