Chemical Structure

3-Bromophenylacetyl chloride CAS 98288-51-8 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 3-Bromophenylacetyl chloride is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-Bromophenylacetyl chloride (CAS 98288-51-8), molecular formula C8H6BrClO and molecular weight 233.49 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-Bromophenylacetyl chloride (C8H6BrClO) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional 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.

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.
