Chemical Structure

4-Bromo-3-methylbenzyl Alcohol CAS 149104-89-2 chemical structure

Description

4-Bromo-3-methylbenzyl Alcohol (C8H9BrO) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

4-Bromo-3-methylbenzyl Alcohol (CAS 149104-89-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H9BrO and a molecular weight of 201.06 g/mol.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
