Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-2-fluoroacetonitrile CAS 96449-14-8 chemical structure

Description

The molecular framework of 2-Bromo-2-fluoroacetonitrile (C2HBrFN) is characterized by a nitrile group, fluorine/bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO supplies 2-Bromo-2-fluoroacetonitrile (CAS 96449-14-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula C2HBrFN, MW 137.94 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

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-2-fluoroacetonitrile 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.
