Chemical Structure

4-(4-Bromophenyl)-1-phenylbutan-1-one CAS 1225857-78-2 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 4-(4-Bromophenyl)-1-phenylbutan-1-one is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

4-(4-Bromophenyl)-1-phenylbutan-1-one (CAS 1225857-78-2), molecular formula C16H15BrO and molecular weight 303.19 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 4-(4-Bromophenyl)-1-phenylbutan-1-one (C16H15BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 303.19 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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 4-(4-Bromophenyl)-1-phenylbutan-1-one 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.
