3-Bromo-4-methylpentan-2-one CAS 29585-01-1

Description

The occurrence of 3-Bromo-4-methylpentan-2-one is closely related to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

3-Bromo-4-methylpentan-2-one (CAS 29585-01-1), molecular formula C6H11BrO and molecular weight 179.05 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, 3-Bromo-4-methylpentan-2-one is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 179.05 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. 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.
