Chemical Structure

2-Bromo-4-chloro-1-(4-chlorophenyl)butan-1-one CAS 3760-66-5 chemical structure

Description

CATO manufactures 2-Bromo-4-chloro-1-(4-chlorophenyl)butan-1-one under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.

2-Bromo-4-chloro-1-(4-chlorophenyl)butan-1-one (CAS 3760-66-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C10H9BrCl2O and a molecular weight of 295.99 g/mol.

Owing to a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine/bromine substitution, an aromatic ring system, 2-Bromo-4-chloro-1-(4-chlorophenyl)butan-1-one is typically off-white to pale yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 295.99 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.
