Chemical Structure

1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diselane CAS 20541-48-4 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 469.92 g/mol gives 1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diselane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diselane (CAS 20541-48-4), molecular formula C12H8Br2Se2 and molecular weight 469.92 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diselane is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 469.92 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.

CATO manufactures 1,2-Bis(4-bromophenyl)diselane under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
