Chemical Structure

5-Bromo-1,2,3-tri-tert-butylbenzene CAS 1951441-92-1 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 5-Bromo-1,2,3-tri-tert-butylbenzene is closely related to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

5-Bromo-1,2,3-tri-tert-butylbenzene (CAS 1951441-92-1), molecular formula C18H29Br and molecular weight 325.33 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

5-Bromo-1,2,3-tri-tert-butylbenzene (C18H29Br) contains bromine substitution, an aromatic ring 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.

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.
