Chemical Structure

4,4’’-Dibromo-p-terphenyl CAS 17788-94-2 chemical structure

Description

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.

4,4’’-Dibromo-p-terphenyl (CAS 17788-94-2) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C18H12Br2 and a molecular weight of 388.10 g/mol.

4,4’’-Dibromo-p-terphenyl (C18H12Br2) contains bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

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