Chemical Structure

(4-Bromo-phenylsulfanyl)-acetic acid CAS 3406-76-6 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of (4-Bromo-phenylsulfanyl)-acetic acid is closely related to a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

(4-Bromo-phenylsulfanyl)-acetic acid (CAS 3406-76-6), molecular formula C8H7BrO2S and molecular weight 247.11 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Based on its molecular formula C8H7BrO2S, (4-Bromo-phenylsulfanyl)-acetic acid contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 247.11 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

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.
