5-Bromo-2-Hydroxybenzonitrile Compliance & Specs
Hazard Classification Based on Flash Point 124.8±23.2 °C Limits for Dangerous Goods Transport
Understanding the thermal properties of 5-Bromo-2-Hydroxybenzonitrile is critical for safe logistics planning. The specified flash point of 124.8±23.2 °C indicates the temperature at which the vapor of the compound may ignite in air. While this value suggests a relatively high threshold compared to volatile solvents, it necessitates strict adherence to dangerous goods transport regulations during international shipping. At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we classify shipments based on this physical parameter to ensure alignment with IMDG and IATA guidelines.
From an engineering perspective, maintaining storage temperatures well below this threshold is essential to prevent vapor accumulation in confined spaces. During summer months or when shipping through equatorial regions, container ventilation becomes a non-negotiable parameter. We recommend monitoring ambient temperatures during transit to ensure they remain significantly below the lower limit of the flash point range. This proactive approach mitigates risk without relying solely on regulatory labels, focusing instead on physical safety margins inherent to the chemical's properties.
COA Parameters Validating Purity Grades Against Thermal Stability Specifications
Quality assurance for 5-Bromo-2-Hydroxybenzonitrile extends beyond standard purity percentages. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) must validate thermal stability to prevent degradation during downstream processing. Based on available data, the molecular weight is 198.02 g/mol with a formula of C7H4BrNO. The melting point typically ranges between 150–153°C, serving as a primary identifier for batch consistency.
However, standard COAs often overlook non-standard parameters that impact real-world application. In our field experience, trace impurities can affect final product color during mixing, particularly in dye synthesis. Specifically, if the material is subjected to prolonged heating above 160°C during reaction phases, slight discoloration may occur due to thermal degradation of minor brominated byproducts. This behavior is not always captured in standard purity assays but is critical for R&D managers aiming for high-color-quality end products.
The following table outlines key technical parameters comparing standard industrial expectations against verified physical constants:
| Parameter | Standard Specification | Verified Physical Constant |
|---|---|---|
| Chemical Name | 5-Bromo-2-Hydroxybenzonitrile | 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzonitrile |
| CAS Number | 40530-18-5 | 40530-18-5 |
| Molecular Weight | 198.02 g/mol | 198.02 g/mol |
| Melting Point | 150–153°C | 150–153°C |
| Appearance | Off-white crystalline powder | Off-white crystalline powder |
| Purity | Please refer to the batch-specific COA | Please refer to the batch-specific COA |
For detailed information on improving yield and quality through synthesis route optimization, technical teams should review process parameters that minimize these thermal stressors.
Bulk Packaging Solutions Designed for Flash Point Compliance and Safety
Physical packaging plays a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity of phenol derivatives during transit. Given the hygroscopic nature of some nitrile compounds and the need to protect against moisture ingress, we utilize multi-layer packaging solutions. Standard options include 25kg fiber drums with polyethylene liners or 500kg IBC totes for larger volume requirements. For specific logistics needs, 210L drums are also available, provided they meet the structural integrity required for the specified flash point limits.
Each packaging unit is designed to prevent contamination from external environmental factors. The inner liners are sealed to maintain dryness, which is crucial because moisture can catalyze hydrolysis of the nitrile group over extended storage periods. When ordering by CIF or FOB terms, buyers should specify their warehouse stacking limitations to ensure the packaging configuration aligns with their handling equipment. This attention to physical packaging details shortens customs clearance headaches and ensures the material arrives in the same condition it left the manufacturing facility.
Global Manufacturer Compliance Protocols for REACH and ISO Certified Supply Chains
Navigating global regulatory frameworks requires robust documentation and transparent supply chain management. While environmental regulations vary by region, our focus remains on maintaining ISO certified supply chains that prioritize quality management and traceability. We provide comprehensive documentation packages, including MSDS and TDS, to support our clients' internal compliance audits.
It is important to distinguish between manufacturer quality protocols and specific regional environmental registrations. We focus on delivering consistent quality and safety data that allows buyers to manage their own regulatory filings effectively. Our production facilities adhere to strict operational standards to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. This reduces risk for both large factories and smaller buyers after a low MOQ. By providing clear guidelines on handling and disposal, we empower procurement teams to meet their local safety policies without relying on unverified environmental guarantees. Responsible supply rests on strong documentation, and we ensure every shipment comes with the promised purity and technical support.
