Chemical Structure

1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenoxyethanone CAS 36372-16-4 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including 1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenoxyethanone.

1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenoxyethanone (CAS 36372-16-4), molecular formula C8H7BrOC12H10O and molecular weight 369.26 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenoxyethanone (C8H7BrOC12H10O) contains a steroid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. Halogen substitution raises its density and boiling point, its high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio confers good lipid solubility, the carboxyl group imparts weak acidity; these physicochemical properties determine the optimal preparation and storage of its standard solutions. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

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.
