Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-6-methoxybenzyl chloride CAS 93710-53-3 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 2-Bromo-6-methoxybenzyl chloride.

2-Bromo-6-methoxybenzyl chloride (CAS 93710-53-3), molecular formula C8H8BrClO and molecular weight 235.51 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

2-Bromo-6-methoxybenzyl chloride (C8H8BrClO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/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-6-methoxybenzyl chloride 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.
