Chemical Structure

3-(4-Bromophenyl)-4-methylpentanoic acid CAS 1017195-23-1 chemical structure

Description

3-(4-Bromophenyl)-4-methylpentanoic acid (CAS 1017195-23-1), molecular formula C12H15BrO2 and molecular weight 271.15 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 3-(4-Bromophenyl)-4-methylpentanoic acid (C12H15BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), 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.

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.

CATO manufactures 3-(4-Bromophenyl)-4-methylpentanoic acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
