Chemical Structure

1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diazene CAS 1601-98-5 chemical structure

Description

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

1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diazene (CAS 1601-98-5), molecular formula C12H8Br2N2 and molecular weight 340.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of 1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diazene (C12H8Br2N2) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Nitrogen-containing functional groups confer excellent ionization efficiency in positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mode, making the compound well suited to LC-MS/MS analysis.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diazene 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.
