Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4-ethynyl-1-fluorobenzene CAS 918487-39-5 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 2-Bromo-4-ethynyl-1-fluorobenzene is closely related to fluorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

2-Bromo-4-ethynyl-1-fluorobenzene (CAS 918487-39-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H4BrF and a molecular weight of 199.02 g/mol.

2-Bromo-4-ethynyl-1-fluorobenzene (C8H4BrF) 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.

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.

CATO manufactures 2-Bromo-4-ethynyl-1-fluorobenzene under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
