Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 4-Bromo-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenol.
4-Bromo-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenol (CAS 15062-34-7) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H13BrO and a molecular weight of 229.11 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C10H13BrO, 4-Bromo-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenol contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 229.11 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. 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.
As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-Bromo-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl)phenol meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
