Chemical Structure

4-(4-Bromophenyl)pyridine CAS 39795-60-3 chemical structure

Description

4-(4-Bromophenyl)pyridine (CAS 39795-60-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C11H8BrN and a molecular weight of 234.09 g/mol.

The molecular framework of 4-(4-Bromophenyl)pyridine (C11H8BrN) is characterized by a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic scaffold, a nitrile group, bromine substitution. 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 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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), 4-(4-Bromophenyl)pyridine meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
