Chemical Structure

6-Bromo-2-phenylbenzofuran CAS 92104-02-4 chemical structure

Description

6-Bromo-2-phenylbenzofuran (CAS 92104-02-4), molecular formula C14H9BrO and molecular weight 273.12 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 6-Bromo-2-phenylbenzofuran is typically pale yellow to yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 273.12 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 6-Bromo-2-phenylbenzofuran 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.
