Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 175.97 g/mol gives 3-Bromo-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
3-Bromo-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (CAS 98026-79-0), molecular formula C4H2BrNO2 and molecular weight 175.97 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Based on its molecular formula C4H2BrNO2, 3-Bromo-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione contains an amide group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 175.97 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
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.
