Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-2-[(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)oxy]benzoic acid CAS 938292-95-6 chemical structure

Description

5-Bromo-2-[(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)oxy]benzoic acid (CAS 938292-95-6), molecular formula C14H9BrCl2O3 and molecular weight 376.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system, 5-Bromo-2-[(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)oxy]benzoic acid is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 376.03 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 5-Bromo-2-[(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)oxy]benzoic acid 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.
