Chemical Structure

[4-(bromomethyl)cyclohexyl]benzene CAS 1521961-37-4 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of [4-(bromomethyl)cyclohexyl]benzene is closely related to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

[4-(bromomethyl)cyclohexyl]benzene (CAS 1521961-37-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H17Br and a molecular weight of 253.18 g/mol.

Owing to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, [4-(bromomethyl)cyclohexyl]benzene is typically off-white to pale yellow low-melting solid. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 253.18 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.
