Chemical Structure

Bis(4-bromophenyl)methanol CAS 29334-18-7 chemical structure

Description

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.

Bis(4-bromophenyl)methanol (CAS 29334-18-7), molecular formula C13H10Br2O and molecular weight 342.03 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

The molecular framework of Bis(4-bromophenyl)methanol (C13H10Br2O) is characterized by a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system. 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. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

As a certified reference material (CRM), Bis(4-bromophenyl)methanol 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.
