Chemical Structure

4-(3-Bromophenoxy)benzoic acid CAS 347173-46-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 293.11 g/mol gives 4-(3-Bromophenoxy)benzoic acid distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

4-(3-Bromophenoxy)benzoic acid (CAS 347173-46-0) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C13H9BrO3 and a molecular weight of 293.11 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-(3-Bromophenoxy)benzoic acid (C13H9BrO3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, 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. 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.
