Chemical Structure

6,6'-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine CAS 96517-97-4 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 6,6'-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine.

6,6'-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (CAS 96517-97-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C12H10Br2N2 and a molecular weight of 342.03 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 6,6'-Bis(bromomethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (C12H10Br2N2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. 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).

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
