TCI D4103 Bromoxynil, CAS number 1689-84-5, is a hydroxylated benzonitrile compound carrying two bromine atoms on its aromatic ring. The substance is widely known as the active ingredient of the hydroxybenzonitrile class of herbicides, and in the laboratory setting it serves a dual role as an analytical reference material and as a synthetic building block. This role is important for laboratories that test pesticide residues in agricultural products, water, and soil, because the availability of a reference substance with a clearly established identity is an absolute requirement for analytical method development, instrument calibration, and verification of residue testing results.
The properties that make this compound a preferred choice are the combination of a phenol group, a nitrile group, and two bromine substituents, which together produce a distinctive spectral signature in both mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy, so that identification can be established relatively easily. The characteristic bromine isotope pattern is particularly helpful for confirming peaks in gas chromatography and liquid chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer. From the synthetic standpoint, the acidic hydroxyl group can be etherified or esterified, while the nitrile group can be hydrolysed or reduced, making this material a flexible starting point for further chemical work.
In Indonesian laboratories, this compound is typically encountered in the residue analysis workflow supporting agricultural commodity testing, environmental monitoring of water and soil, and academic research on herbicide chemistry. Analysts use it to prepare reference solutions during method development, to calibrate chromatographic and spectrometric instrumentation, and to verify results obtained from routine residue testing. Synthetic chemistry groups draw on it as a non-heterocyclic building block when constructing more elaborate brominated aromatic structures.
