Chemical Structure

3-(4-bromophenyl)-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione CAS 1094289-44-7 chemical structure

Description

3-(4-bromophenyl)-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione (CAS 1094289-44-7), molecular formula C11H10BrNO2 and molecular weight 268.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 3-(4-bromophenyl)-3-methylpyrrolidine-2,5-dione is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 268.11 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

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.

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.
