Chemical Structure

1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenylethane-1,2-dione CAS 39229-12-4 chemical structure

Description

1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenylethane-1,2-dione (CAS 39229-12-4) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C14H9BrO2 and a molecular weight of 289.12 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenylethane-1,2-dione (C14H9BrO2) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic 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. The presence of an aromatic ring or conjugated system gives the compound characteristic absorption bands in the UV-Vis region, making it well suited to UV or diode-array detection (DAD).

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.

CATO manufactures 1-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-phenylethane-1,2-dione 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.
