Uv-Vis Spectrum of Bromochloroacetic Acid
February 12, 2026

If you are looking for optimized HPLC method to analyze Bromochloroacetic acid check our HPLC Applications library
For optimal results in HPLC analysis, it is recommended to measure absorbance at a wavelength that matches the absorption maximum of the compound(s) being analyzed. The UV spectrum shown can assist in selecting an appropriate wavelength for your analysis. Please note that certain mobile phases and buffers may block wavelengths below 230 nm, rendering absorbance measurement at these wavelengths ineffective. If detection below 230 nm is required, it is recommended to use acetonitrile and water as low UV-transparent mobile phases, with phosphoric acid and its salts, sulfuric acid, and TFA as buffers.
For some compounds, the UV-Vis Spectrum is affected by the pH of the mobile phase. The spectra presented here are measured with an acidic mobile phase that has a pH of 3 or lower.
HPLC Separation of Bromoacetic and Chloroacetic Acids on Newcrom BH Column
June 17, 2020
HPLC Method for Difluoroacetic acid, Dichloroacetic acid, Dibromoacetic acid, Acetic Acid, Bromoacetic acid, Chloroacetic acid, Bromochloroacetic acid on Newcrom BH by SIELC Technologies
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Difluoroacetic acid, Dichloroacetic acid, Dibromoacetic acid, Acetic Acid, Bromoacetic acid, Chloroacetic acid, Bromochloroacetic acid.
Acetic acid and its various chloro- and bromo- forms are widely used in organic chemistry. Their similar structure makes the acids difficult to retain and separate on reverse-phase HPLC columns. By using Newcrom BH mixed-mode column which also has ion-exchange properties, the separation can be achieved with a simple isocratic method and relatively short time with a mobile phase of acetonitrile (ACN), water and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) buffer. UV detection at 200nm.
